I've only been collecting 2009's in AU & MS, that I find in my crh'ing.

Should I be collecting all grades 2009's?

For the most part I'm only finding 2009 errors but have a dozen that aren't errors as well.

Thoughts?

Look up the mintage numbers on these. I believe the 2009 "Presidency" was the lowest and had mintage numbers around 125,000,000+- While low for modern Lincolns, it's not really low. However, if you like them then you should ABSOLUTELY collect/save them! :)

I would collect the MS60 and up for the long term, and varieties and errors Good and up for any term.

How I do it ..
I decide on how many I think I might want, 1 roll,
2 rolls ... 10 rolls.

Then cull out the lower grades for the better grade
coins I find.

Also .. how many do you think you might be able to
sell in the future? How many will you need for you
collection?

I see a lot of older collections, where
older collectors kept certain coins with hopes they
would be worth more sometime in the future.

Examples - Bicentennial coins, SBA's or 1958 BU
Lincoln cents. These were kept at such a level that
there is no real value.

For 2009 cents, many have BU rolls. They were picked up
at banks and coin shows. I have around 20 rolls in my
collection. At one point I had 50 roll boxes I got from
my bank. I could not see me keeping that many and sold
them to other collectors.

The 2009 Lincolns I like are the proofs or the cents from
mint sets. These are the older 95% copper and have a lower
mintage compared to the business strikes.

I have one box each that I got from my bank in 2009. Everyone has some in their collection so I don't see big premium for these anytime soon. If you want to have some in your collection you should buy as many BU rolls that you want and put them aside for years and years and years,you get the point As for CRH,keep the errors/varieties and pass on the rest.

2009 P & D BU rolls of all 4 designs I have about 100 rolls total. I'm keeping these because I feel they are highly underrated as a collectible series . and hopefully someday they'll be highly sort after.

And @Tbop, I think you're right in regards to being highly/vastly underrated!

Only time will tell!
Rest in Peace
