I'm trying to trade for Lincoln cents, just a little project I'm working on. Problem is, they are actually hard to find individually as far as I can tell. Here's my list: https://goccf.com/t/17931I visted 2 local shops today and they didn't have much. They just don't want to spend time/expense selling 10 cent max coins. I know these are not all that valuable, but jez, where the heck can I find these? Looked around the internet, and didn't see any stores that offered them. I don't want to buy rolls or bags and search, I don't want slabs or graded, I just want to buy the raw, cheap pennies individually in AU or MS grade. I can't seem to find any stores on the internet that sell them either. Does anyone know of an online coin shop that offers these common dates? It's turning into a crazy hunt for me! |

BadThad,
I know of an Online Shop that has a Pretty GOOD selection of BU Lincolns, many RED BU and many that would Grade MS. They date from the 1930's to the 1950's (the remaining years 1960's, 1970's, 1980's etc haven't been photographed and listed yet.
Just click on the link in the Signature below:
(A little self Advertising in answer to your question).
Thanks,

Try Millersmint. However, have you gone to a coin show? Are there any coin shows in your area? At the coin shows around here, 3 per month, you could buy every single one on your list. At one coin show I go to there is a dealer that sells completed sets from 1940 to present, in MS grades, for really decent prices. Many dealers have every coin you mentioned and then some. One dealer at all the shows has vetually every Lincoln Cent from 09 to present in various grades though. If you can find a coin show, that is your best bet. Just go to Google, type in coin shows and your state and you should get a list of all the possible ones. And don't forget if you live near other states, try them also. Here in Illinois we have many, many coin shows every month. 3 are within 15 miles of my house. Best place to see, learn, buy coins. |

Thanks for the input everyone. I'm going to work with Ducky to start off, he has some of the coins I need. I'll look into the coin shows too.
Thanks

I got a decent set of 1941-58 bu red wheats on ebay for 28 bucks. You just need to watch for ones that close at off hours like the early morning between 2am and 8amish central time for me seems to be the best. Or just get lucky. But its a set that goes up alot on ebay for mostly the 50ish dollar range and then you can get 1930-1940 for about 150 to 200 bucks buying the single coins on ebay in red BU condition. Before 1930 your looking at a substantial amount per coin depending on the dates. Just search the Wheat cent section for "red" or "BU" or "Set" and see what comes up you may get lucky like I did and get a nice set for 28 bucks! |
