Since I'm getting my first box today, I was wondering what I should be looking for in general. Do you guys known which dates, mintmarks, errors, and varities I should be looking for? Thanks! (What's the difference between an error and a varity?) Report this Post to the Staff

CoinCollector2012 Pillar of the Community United States 8137 Posts	Posted 10/10/2014 08:19 am I keep the following, Wheats non Lincoln Cents (IHCs etc.) any errors proofs Some people save 95% copper cent (pre 1982) but I do not because they take up space and I can't sell them for more than face. I do not keep any varieties. Report this Post to the Staff
