Totally agree with that. I suspect someone has a few bags of these under their pillow. With a mintage of 26 million you'd think there would be more available. In my opinion many times scarcer than the 1968 but not much interest.
Sorry Gents. But your constant reference to 26 million is quite frankly irrelevant as all those decimal copper coins have been melted down under reclamation programs carried on by their respective mints, so those that exist and there only a few,is it. They we not included in mint sets nor bank rolls. Unless they were identified as such at that time buy a collector the odds of them being collected would be almost nil. The same goes for the 1968 one and Two Cent Pieces as well. All three very, very underrated even with the present prices.
