Should be about 6,300 cents if I did the math right. All are small cents with the majority (90%) being the Tiara queen. I am in the process of sorting by date and have the trusty Charlton Standard Guide 2022 to help me out. But this post is for a 1998 cent that appears to be having plating issues on both sides. My question is 1) am I calling it the correct thing and 2) is it worth anything? I took a close shot of the leaf's and date as it looks like corrosion above the 19? Report this Post to the Staff
