coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/04/2014 12:43 am Looks like an earlier die state than the one I have: Note the heavy die flow on mine and the weakness of the inside of the mint mark RPM? Edited by coop 12/04/2014 12:44 am Report this Post to the Staff
Agrippa Pillar of the Community United States 663 Posts	Posted 12/04/2014 1:52 pm Thanks Coop for confirming! I've been trying a new method lately of sorting better quality coins and discarding the beat up ones (maybe only a cursory look). I know some coin aficionados might gasp at the idea of missing something, but I've been having more success finding varieties/errors this way and the quality of what I find is better too! I'll probably go back to inspecting every coin again in a couple of months. Seems I switch my tactics every so often. Coop, just curious..... With all of the coins you have, do you still roll search? If so, is what are the top couple of coins you're just dying to find right now? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/04/2014 3:00 pm I've stopped roll searching. I had a source that would send me rolls from the other side of the country, but I haven't done a lot of searching lately. I prefer to search BU/OBW rolls. I find a better quality coin that way. I also toss undesirable coins rather than look at them. They are a waste of time if they look bad. Toss! Report this Post to the Staff
Agrippa Pillar of the Community United States 663 Posts	Posted 12/04/2014 9:55 pm How do you find OBW? Any tips? I lucked into finding about 28 OBW of pennies about 8 months ago, but I must assume that is not going to happen often. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/05/2014 6:02 pm I used to buy them at coin shows. I'm not able to get out to the shows because of health issues. I've bought some off ebay in the past, but most the time they are dud rolls. Edited by coop 12/05/2014 6:03 pm Report this Post to the Staff
