It could have been in a collection and may have been spent by an heir or a thief, not knowing what it is other than one cent.

n9jig Pillar of the Community United States 997 Posts	Posted 05/22/2017 3:27 pm It is in pretty decent shape for a 55+ year old coin. It might be worth 5 or 10 cents from a dealer who might sell it for a quarter or so. It is certainly worth holding on to and encasing in a 2x2. Report this Post to the Staff

mail187man Valued Member United States 265 Posts	Posted 05/26/2017 11:29 am I've been searching penny rolls lately. While pretty uncommon, it is possible to find older Pennies in this condition. Report this Post to the Staff
nfine Pillar of the Community United States 3468 Posts	Posted 05/26/2017 11:40 am I'm betting a collector released a roll into circulation hoping a person or two would find them and spark a little excitement. Report this Post to the Staff
