Mark, I know how you feel. I used to have a bunch of my old Pontiac parts at my Mom's house. She graciously let me do it but would mumble about my rusty junk. One day I decided I didn't need all the spares and told Mom I was going to sell it. She thought I MIGHT get $100. After seeing buyer after buyer putting Hundred dollar bills in my hand all weekend and the asking me how much I made.....$5600...she just shook her head. As for you cent everyone pretty much nailed it. But the satisfaction of finding something like this in the wild is the real value! I have a 1903S morgan I got in change 15 years ago, and I"ll never sell it. Even though I am a coin dealer!

Hey Mark , I'm a little late to the party but not to worry . There will be no bashing on your 1916 find from me today . The coin has a very good strike , too bad it was grossly stained and beat to crap being in that jar . I don't think I would have thought it was a Matte Proof but hey I'm sure you were excited about it and wanting to show and tell of your great find . What were you thinking   Oh yeah , I forgot; No Roasting  |

Centsie, jm - thanks.
T-BOP, all I did was post it with a simple question, never mentioned selling, never mentioned anything about price. Funny how some people only worry about money as in values of coins instead of the thrill of a find! I collect for fun and what I want - I don't sell and I can give a crap if I over paid on something or got a great deal. Although getting a deal every now and then is gratifying!
