Found a rather nice '66 penny to add to my folder... I didn't have this date at all so it's my first specimen to judge. I'd say it's worth the 1¢ I used to exchange out of the register. Obverse has a couple spots on the bottom left quarter and the reverse appears to be toning from someone's fingerprint unfortunately. None the less a keeper till I find a replacement... this is my 5th 60' decade cent in a week to pull out of a drawer and take a spot in my folders from a bare spot.

 Nice one. I think that cent spent decades in a drawer or jar somewhere. Nice fields. The spot on the obverse isn't all that bad. Glad it found a good home.

Nice little haul there. Great condition on them as well!
These look so much better than the Flat look of the 80's to current.

Always great to fill a hole in a folder..  Nice find I like the brown color on the 66, the others are great looking coins.

It makes me feel old to hear someone excited about finding a coin dated in the 1960s....

And thanks all I appreciate the feedback! I'm stoked on finding the early ones so nice still. I open my folder and very few are nasty browns nice to have that shine and glare blind you upon inspection !

Very nice! High grade Lincolns from the 1970s and before are always nice to get!
