coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/14/2018 4:38 pm Hopefully they are Philly cents. You will probably find a lot of stuff then. Here in 'Denver' coin land, I find hardly nothing of real interest. Report this Post to the Staff
vietguy823 Valued Member United States 186 Posts	Posted 07/14/2018 4:54 pm Thank you very much everyone! I will keep it posted if I find anything suspicious. @Coop. Me too, I'm getting alot of "D" and "S" Mint here too. Hopefully, there will be some good stuff from S Mint. Report this Post to the Staff

vietguy823 Valued Member United States 186 Posts	Posted 07/14/2018 5:51 pm I'm an Mint Error guy lol. Normally, I separate all the pre 1982, then by year. When I have time then I look for all the varieties. For the more modern one I only look for 92, 92-D closed AM, 1983 DD and Copper, 1984 Double ears, 1988 RDV--006, possible 1989 RDV-005, 1995 DD, and 1998-2000 Wide AM, and possible 1993 Wide AM.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74628 Posts	Posted 07/14/2018 6:12 pm Oh, I see. That's awesome! You're just like me. I'm glad you do both. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
vietguy823 Valued Member United States 186 Posts	Posted 07/14/2018 6:32 pm Thanks! E&V. At least we both have something in common :-). The thing is I just dont like the shield cent and its varieties. I only double check for 2010 transitional (2009 reverse) and vice versa if there is one lol. Edited by vietguy823 07/14/2018 6:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74628 Posts	Posted 07/14/2018 6:44 pm You're very welcome! And yes, I do agree with you on the Lincoln Shield Cents. I don't like them much etheir. It's my least favorite design and I liked the Memorial Cents better. On Lincoln Shield Cents, I only look for errors and varieties (I like the major Doubled Dies the best on LSC's). Errers and Varietys.

sosicoin Valued Member United States 393 Posts	Posted 07/15/2018 12:01 pm Hi, vietguy823. That's an awesome 80 lbs lot of pennies. Sorting alone gives you the adrenaline rush what more if you find what you wish. It's a time well spent in a hobby, in my opinion. Enjoy & have fun. It's like treasure hunting...

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/15/2018 12:08 pm If you save any for further study, save the BU/AU examples and send the lower grade back to circulation after searching them. I figure if something later is discovered, I will check though my rolls of these and then put them back into circulation. (That way you can look at the better coins again. And if you find something, a better grade coin is what you want to find it on) Report this Post to the Staff
vietguy823 Valued Member United States 186 Posts	Posted 07/15/2018 2:10 pm Thank you very much everyone! I do hunting when I have free time and it will be a while till I finish sorting all these cents. My wife is not happy with these cents since it shared my free time with her lol. @Coop. yes I do saved most of the BU aside for any future references. Report this Post to the Staff
DrDon Pillar of the Community United States 2624 Posts	Posted 07/15/2018 2:35 pm vietguy823 and coop: I understand your "D" frustration. I live in south central Mississippi just north of the La. border. All the new cents we get here are Denver mint. I decided to visit Bama back in 2013. I walked into one bank and stood in line as the teller dealt with an "old timer" who was cashing a bunch of cents. When she asked if she could help me she was just starting to put rolls away. I stopped her and said I would like to get them (pointing to the rolls ). She asked " all of them?" I walked out with over $60. By the end of the trip I had $250 in cents to look through. Good luck vietguy823. Report this Post to the Staff
