navycapt1635 Valued Member United States 220 Posts	Posted 07/04/2020 3:03 pm Hello all, I have a few ? about US pennies. 1. 1946 no mint mark Wheat penny: I have seen some online info about this being upgraded in value. Could someone please confirm or dispute that? 2. 1970-S Large cent proof in its original sealed cellophane from Littleton Coins: It appears to me to be flawless with a nice dark copper toning. Should I remove it from the cellophane to get a better look? (photo) 3. 1908-S Indian penny: I would appreciate it if someone could estimate the grade. (photo) 4. 1959/1960 new pennies: I am trying to grade. They are all virtually flawless with nice dark red luster, but I am not experienced enough to know about the quality of the "strike." Would greatly appreciate some advice. (photo) 5. 1969-D new "floating roof" memorial pennies: I have a few of these and would like to get some advice on their grade. (photo) (I still working on improving my photo skills, but I would appreciate any comments on that also) Thanks for all your help! Report this Post to the Staff

You can remove it,Littleton is a bit of a shady company,IMHO 3.Pic? 4. Pics? 5.Pics. Needs to be totally floating to be a keeper,and even then small if any premium. Read through our photo section for tips. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

captaincoffee Pillar of the Community United States 600 Posts	Posted 07/05/2020 12:23 am #1, #4, #5: all these dates are common, so all would be low value unless they are some kind of special error #2: small date can be somewhat valuable depending on condition, large date not so much. Google how to tell the difference and plenty of sites with high-res photos will show you. #3: can be a valuable coin depending on condition. Report this Post to the Staff
