jbuck Moderator United States 187950 Posts	Posted 10/10/2017 4:28 pm It will not fetch much and might not be the best example, but I would be happy to find this since it does look rather nice for its age. As mentioned, a keeper for the 95% copper, for sure.

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 10/10/2017 4:33 pm If you like it, keep it. It only costs one cent to do so. What you save in the future may change, but starting with a base to work from is always good. The best advise I can give is that you should only keep or collect coins you really love. Whatever YOUR definition may be. Report this Post to the Staff

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19935 Posts	Posted 10/10/2017 9:55 pm 1981 is a common coin until you get into the very high grades (66-67). You coin appears to be MS-62 or so. These are difficult to find in decent shape. It's a coin I've always struggled with. After searching ten's of thousands of coins, this is the best one I've found: Lincoln Cent Lover!
