ccg Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 This shouldn't really count, but I was buying 2x2's and the store didn't really have change (weird, eh?) After some digging around, I ended up with 1959 1c VF+ 1961 1c MS60 1962 1c MS60CAM 1963 5c VF- 1972 5c AU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishmoney Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 Got this in change at Babies R Us this afternoon, funny thing was a survey printed for a Satisfaction with the transaction! Now of course I am satisfied, because not only did I get a 48 yr old coin, but one with a neat little die crack at the back of Lincoln's head, giving him a little curly cue at the back of his hair.

BiggAndyy Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Just got this guy in change. My questions are: What are the diagnostics for the 1938 rev vs the 1940 rev? What are the diagnostics for the 1939 Doubled Monticello? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishmoney Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Searched 2.500 cents today for the pre-1982 bronzes and came up with about 1/4 bronze and the following fringe benefits; 1925 in VF! 1941-S 1944 1947-S 1950-D 1952-D 1954-D 1955 1956-D 1957-D 1958-D 1969-S 1971-S x 2 1972-S 1974-S It seems like I get about 1 early pre-1940 for every 2.500 cents, in one search a couple of months ago I got a 1910 and then a 1919-S.

syzygy Posted March 6, 2007 Report Share Posted March 6, 2007 Received my first SQ of the year. I like this one - reminds me of the 1935 Old Spanish Trail commemorative half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtryka Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 Today I went to the bank to get into my safe deposit box and the coin counting machine is right next to the boxes in the vault, so I spied what I though was silver in the plastic bag of halves, so I bought all $40 they had and landed me a nice toned 1964 Kennedy!

Topher Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 I tend to find a higher percentage of wheat cents here in Canada, than I ever did in the US. In fact, I've found more wheat cents in circulation in the 4.5 years I've been in Canada than I ever found in almost 3 decades in the US. I think the Canadians just go: "bleh, American penny" and pass it along, whereas the average American might see it and go "neat, I'll save this one". That being said, I got a 1947ML Canadian penny, a couple of 2 Euro cent coins, and a 1 cent Bahamian coin in this past weeks change. Not a bad week overall.

Similarly I have found a lot of older QEII cents, and even GVI cents in change here in the USA. I got a 1958 cent just the other day.
