Aaron1978 Valued Member United States 148 Posts	Posted 04/05/2014 7:47 pm Hello. I found a 1977 (d, I think) Lincoln Cent in my "pocket change". It looks to me like it could be a clip? I am still learning and have never seen nor do I know anything about this. Your help would be fantastic! Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

Aaron1978 Valued Member United States 148 Posts	Posted 04/05/2014 8:36 pm Nice! I got in a big argument with my friends because they said some one cut it. I have no idea so I decided to ask the experts. Is this rare? Worth more than one cent? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

They usually go for a buck or two on ebay, but you never know if you get two people that want the same coin. Report this Post to the Staff
OcalaFlorida Pillar of the Community United States 2824 Posts	Posted 04/05/2014 9:35 pm you can look on ebay for a good estimate but from $2-5 dollars would be my guess. I think that 1970-s you used in picture is the large date variety check it versus this thread or take a close up of the date and mint mark. https://goccf.com/t/120561 Report this Post to the Staff
