the 1968 one it just looked a bit "newer" and the mint mark to me looked as if it was stamped twice causing the distorted "D"... and what about grading are any of these year coins of significance? I'm eyeing the Wheat penny specifically.. thanks for any help, Bless up.

The cost of grading these coins (and postage to and from grading service) would far outweigh the value of these coins. My advice to you as a newbie.....spend a lot of time here learning before you go spending a lot of money. And...  to the forum!

Nothing there worth more than the copper content and certainly not worth spending $55-60 getting graded. The D mint mark just has a broken post, very common. The 1958 cent had over 252 million minted and would have to be in high MS condition to have any value.

Over a hundred bucks all in to grade 4 face value coins . A superb idea indeed , if you ask PCGS or NGC.

  with the above as these are all very common dates. On the Lincoln cents, the better dates are before 1935. The four big key dates are 1909-S-VDB, 1909-S, 1914-D, and 1931-S. Better dates abound with the best ones being the rest of the teens mintmarked before 1916, 1921-S, 1922-D, 1923-S, 1924-D and S, 1926-S, 1931-D, and 1933-D. The relative grade is also very important as there are big differences in values depending on grade/condition of the coin. Example, you have a common 1910 Philadelphia mint Wheat cent in really low worn down grade; would only carry a few cents in value, but if the same coin was very high grade with sharp, crisp details, probably tens of dollars in value or more. Keep asking and showing us, we enjoy helping you get better in this wonderful hobby!  Also to note, a genuine double-struck coin would be an already struck coin going through the dies again and getting struck more than once, sometimes centered, sometimes uncentered. I have a 1949 Jefferson nickel in my collection that got struck again in centered position but was rotated from the original strike. I feel you are actually referring to a doubled die as that is a completely different mint error, but can still be quite dramatic and valuable in certain cases.

 to CCF. Please in the future, post only one coin per topic. (you can start as many as you need to) It saves on confusion as to which coin is being discussed.

None are worth grading. All of them are pretty normal. Only one worth keeping is the Wheat cent. The rest are worth face value and should be spent.

NO! You have 4 common coins. Even the 54 is a common Wheat cent - worth like 2 cents.
