I have 1947/51/52 and 56 wheat pennies and I have 1959/61/62/63 and 64 then I have 1966-2019 completed. I found and collected all of these pennies myself over the years from gas stations and restaurants and was just wanting to know if the collection has any value to it. If I found 1960 and 1965 I would have 6 generations of pennies collected. I would say, not a coin grader here but, most of these pennies are in excellent shape but a couple of them show there age, and I also think that a few of them have errors like mint mark errors and letters on/in the rim errors.
But to try and make this question a little easier let's just say I have 1959-2019 completed in my collection and every penny is in good shape with no errors, what would be it's worth to a penny collector?

Probably not worth very much, I'm afraid. Nearly all of these can still be bought in brand new rolls for remarkably little money.

Well done. The hunt is fun. But I must agree with Mr. Frog. Worth the feeling of accomplishment for the most part.

Edit: Oneofakindkid. I don't think I can email you but if you could email me I could help you fill in some of the dates you are missing. You might need 50 posts on the Forum before you can use the email function.

Nice collection from pocket change! As others have said, these are all pretty common coins. It always comes down to condition but ballpark you are talking maybe $20-30.

Thank you everybody for the replies. I knew it wouldn't be a lottery hit or anything close, I was really just wanting to know the worth of the collection that has takin me many many years to collect. Not looking to sell anytime soon just gonna keep adding on to it for many years to come, my goal is to complete 10 generations that would be awesome. I have a few other coins I want to post on here and get other opinions on them. I have one 1972 dime that could possibly be a broad struck error coin and a 1973 penny with, if it is an error, an error I have never seen before and I do a lot of coin researching and video watching. I'll post them in a little bit for y'alls opinions on them

Here is the possible broad struck dime, it seems to be a bit bigger than the usual dime. And looking at the year of the penny, the # 1 looks to be the error.

I suggest you spend a little get a copy of what is called the Red Book by Whitman Publishing. Then also, spend a little and get an Album for those coins.
