claytondodge9 New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 06/12/2014 09:22 am I am wondering what the value of a 1970 S large date Lincoln Cent is. It has a grade listed of PCGS PR68. According to the pcgs site it should be worth $35 but that seems too high for what the current bid is at. Any insight is appreciated. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

rupester Pillar of the Community United States 1300 Posts	Posted 06/12/2014 11:28 am Buy the coin not the slab... For example a 2000 silver Kennedy half dollar has a 22 dollar premium on it..but hard to sell for more than 15 bucks..which is around Red Book prices.. It is what it is slabs are for high dollar coins plain and simple.. Or a coin you want protected... Unless its something that has personal value and you wanna protect it as well Report this Post to the Staff

Granted I was only looking for S coins. Where does anybody get newer S coins? I need them for my Lincoln Cent collection in my Dansco albums.

claytondodge9 New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 06/12/2014 1:38 pm Either one. I guess whatever is less expensive since right now I lot of coins in there from roll hunting that are in rough shape. Report this Post to the Staff
just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 06/12/2014 6:19 pm Remember that a TPGS is in buisness to make money. If they allowed people to think lots of coins are worth only a little, no one would send to them for grading. So they purposely inflate prices and values on coins. Then many people send them in to be slabbed and graded by them. This is why so many coins worth only a few dollars are in slabs. Report this Post to the Staff
