I think that's a good deal for $1. The 1982 set is pretty easily obtainable from circulation and the Kennedy coin is a novelty but again, for a buck there's not really anything to lose.

I would buy them for that price so I think you did well. I'm having problems with motivations filling out the 1982 section on my cent album. I never have the time to go weigh them haha.

Great deal..  And with a footnote... I always am amazed at the coincidences of the Lincoln/Kennedy facts..  |

The one with the Kennedy stamp is not often found on the card any more and this is in great condition. It is something I have sold at the flea market for $1.50. The 1982 set was a bonus for another 50 cents so you did great. Edited by Gyrene7483

That's a pretty nice set of 82's. Most of these I've seen are pretty poor in quality....for $1 you can't go wrong.

It posted before I was done?
I was curious about Large or small, Date? or ? and I have trouble telling copper from zinc in BU condition. Is there a way for an old guy that is over whelmed by the amount of coins produced since the 60`s. I know all from before silver was pulled from circ. But after is hard to keep track of.
Thanks for the help

I have trouble telling copper from zinc in BU condition. It's really easy. Hit them with an Arc Welder's Torch. The ones that melt and look all Coppery, WERE the all Copper ones.  And for $1, you really did great. |

Ouch.   A better idea is to use a balance with a known copper on one end, the suspect coin on the other. |
