PaulF01 Valued Member United States 51 Posts	Posted 03/29/2019 10:36 am Found a 1919 1c penny. Is there any premium for these kind of coins. Its in antique category being it is 100 yrs old. Any thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 03/29/2019 10:39 am No meaningful premium for this coin considering its poor condition. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
KenKat Pillar of the Community United States 4085 Posts	Posted 03/29/2019 10:45 am Agree with Coinfrog - in better condition, there is a premium for old wheat cents, but in this worn condition and with some of the spotting issues, it's only worth a few cents. I'd still keep it, however, as I keep all wheat cents I find. My 7070 US Type Set My 7100 Lincoln Cent Set (now with updates!) Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75369 Posts	Posted 03/29/2019 10:52 am It's a cull coin with all of that damage. It's only worth a few cents. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
llewellin Pillar of the Community United States 1005 Posts	Posted 03/29/2019 10:55 am To answer your question directly, yes there is certainly a premium for this coin above face value. As has been stated, it is worth a few cents, perhaps 10. Report this Post to the Staff

GDB New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 03/29/2019 5:07 pm Forgive me for my ignorance, but I am new to collecting. Is there a safe way to clean the white stuff off that coin that won't harm the value if it was in better shape? Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21665 Posts	Posted 03/29/2019 5:18 pm Soak it in Acetone for about 24 hrs. then rinse with clean Acetone and let air dry. It won't harm the coin and removes most residue. Report this Post to the Staff
