Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 03/31/2017 6:04 pm Sometimes you get sick of saving just for profit and start saving coins for fun or personal preference. I save 59's (I just put them in a ziplock bag) because they are the last cents minted from the 50's, first minted of the Memorials, and that's my birth year. Report this Post to the Staff
