Very new to collecting and came across this in a penny roll. Opinions needed. Thank you!   |

Looks pretty much like it did when first issued. Someone took good care of it!  to the CCF! |

So would it be considered "red"?

Nice coin, given the photos posted. May be a few light dings--hard to tell with the light source and shooting pics through a 2x2. Nice.

Yes, red--given the photos and light source. Natural light may show the coin better.

Definitely an uncirculated red 1960 cent. Nice find!

Large date. I have rolls of the Denver ones that have never been opened yet.

My first good find, gotta love roll hunting. Isn't this one a small date since the 1 and 9 are the same height? Also, is it something worth sending off to be graded? Edited by mikeyboi83

You'll get more replies to this if you post larger images, shown right-side up. Try to evaluate this date sideways as shown.  |

This is a large date. Do some searching on this forum to find pics of both. As to grading - if a coin is not valued at ~150.00, then you would not recover the money you spent to get it graded. Also make sure you understand that grading is an optional service that sits as a side business to this hobby. While these companies offer some good info etc. online, make sure you understand the reality of their "product." http://goccf.com/t/346174#2967242Do some homework yourself and you will find similar results. If you like slabs, collect them, but always remember to buy the coin and not the slab. |

Beautiful coin. I see some cartwheel.

In the future, PLEASE remove your coins from holders before photographing them. It results in clearer images for us to see. Thanks  |
