I have a bunch of Lincoln Memorial pennies from the 80s would anyof them be collectable. Some are worn some are darn near perfect. Anyone have any answers please let me know I'll gladly post a pic I got several wheat coins. A lot of the are in really good condition too.

 There might be some goodies in the bunch, but it will take time and knowledge to weed out the good stuff. Look for errors and varieties as well as any high-grade ones which means you will need to learn grading. You could also weed out pre 1982 for the copper.Wheat backs are worth 2˘-5˘ at most coin shops. John1

 @John1 Why the comment on keeping pre 1982 pennies for copper? I thought per a thread here that they are not worth keeping? I myself keep them as they are PRETTY, I love the toning on old pennies (ya I'm a sucker) but they are such a pain to go through. Now I just buy rolls - cull the wheeties, bag the copper and search the zinc's before I throw back. Would like to hear from others what they do. Happy Hunting!

Hello all. I am a new member. I am a die hard roll hunter. I am quite fond of the copper and really love the toned coins. I have collected coins since I was a youngster. I still have a stash of coins from the paper route I had in grade school. This is an enjoyable past time.
