5ToyBankers New Member United States 31 Posts	Posted 11/16/2024 02:55 am Going through a couple of rolls tonight and found this. I think it's something but have jumped the gun one too many times. Can someone help me identify this coin and approx value (if allowed)? Thank you in advance Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25058 Posts	Posted 11/16/2024 03:13 am Your coin is a 1971 US 5 Cents minted in Philadelphia - one of 106,884,000 minted there that year. Coins minted there did not have a mint mark until 1979 on the Susan B. Anthony dollar coin, all other coins except cents in 1980, and cents beginning in 2017. Value is exactly 5 cents from what I see in your photograph. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 11/16/2024 05:53 am @5toy, I'm glad that you've found your answer already. One thing that would help us help you in future posts would be if you could be really specific about what you are seeing with the coin in hand. Thx.
