Finn, thanks for posting the link to your experience. I'm enjoying everyone's advice.

I expected mostly No's but am surprised to see several Yes's. If anyone that does is willing to share their story, it'd be much appreciated!

Yes I do save pre 82's Lincoln cents. Why, I don't know. As many have already stated it may take years before they are worth anything more than a cent, if then. I don't have any children just nephews and nieces. Just the thoughts of them moving those boxes of cents out one day with one hand will be worth the effort. Yes I said one hand, because they will have some type of electronic device in the other.
Seriously, I have the space and time so a $1000 of LMC isn't going to change my life style, so why not. If logic and or rationality was my reasoning for everything I do my friends and family would think I'm sane.

I have been lately. Not sure why either. Call it more savings I guess.

They do take up space but I keep them anyway. Stored in bank $50 canvas bags. Not being rolled, it makes it harder to get rid of them if I felt like doing so. I still remember silver coins back in 1965-66 and how few people were actually saving them.
