Greenflannel New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 07/31/2017 4:44 pm Thank you everybody for the warm welcome! And thank you for the information you've given me so far! I've only posted some of the Lincoln cents so far, because there are a lot of coins to go through. The rest of the collection consists of a few more Dansco albums ( Roosevelt dimes 1946-2013, Washington quarter national parks 2010-2015, Eisenhower dollars 1971-1978) and some loose coins. As for the loose coins, the most valuable as far as I can tell is my 1878 CC Morgan dollar. It's in pretty worn condition as one might expect for 140 years old, and there are about another 6 morgans in various dates, although better condition. Report this Post to the Staff

Greenflannel New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 08/04/2017 3:22 pm I would be interested in selling, but first I need to post an update. I took my collection to a dealer and was told my 31S and 14D were fakes and therefore not worth anything more than a cent. With these two not being validated, the value of that album is greatly hurt. He made an offer, but I was not satisfied with the price he was offering. To be fair, he agreed to give the same price even if I took the fakes back, so I believe he was telling me the truth. A couple of forum members expressed concern about the quality of these Two Cents anyway, which further validates that claim. With that out in the open, I am happy to talk about selling if you're interested. Report this Post to the Staff
GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 08/04/2017 3:35 pm I think you should read the forum rules, you can not sell on this site until you have 250 post. Most of the value of circulated Lincoln Cent collection, is in the top five coins. 1909 S vdb, 1909 S, 1914 D, 1931 S and 1922 no D. Most collection that come into a coin shop do not have those five coins. And most of the time the semi key coins are missing too. Most coin shops are going to offer you 2 or 3 cents each for the common wheat cents. If some of the early mint marked cents are in better shape, they might offer you a little more.

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 08/04/2017 3:48 pm Green flannel, sorry to hear @ fakes, a lot of that happening. I sell whole LWC & LMC Collections, or should I say attempt to sell them. Business is, ah, less than prosperous. As GR58 said, w/o key dates all I've been able to do is literally give them away. Have one with "tickler" semi-key dates from 1909-present day and it just won't sell even for a grey sheet price. Report this Post to the Staff
