    Hello,
    Hi I am so new to this whole coin thing. I always kept coins that I found , had or got because I thought they looked weird of some sort ot just because they were old or of course with digits ending 77 (my favorite number). I have no idea what to look for or what is worth anything at this point , but I am here and I am trying to learn and discover if anything I have is worth anything. Regardless I will keep them as I already have a connection this long to them ha ha..
    Here is one for example, I do have S pennies not sure if they are worth anything though. One day I am gonna seperate d and s piles of pennies.
    OK here is one... now in this picture the regular 1968 might look just as embossed or raised as the D one but its not when you feel and look in person. Does anyone know what the history is on this and if its worht anything?
    Thanks a bunch :) 1968 D penny50percent.jpg close up 1968 D50percent.jpg good shot 1968 D50percent.jpg

    I have a 1968 d penny. It looks like Lincoln is raised and his chin is a bit bigger if that makes any sense.

    Does anyone know if this penny is worth anything? Besides face value?

    It would help in the future if you would take 1 pic of each coin and crop out all background, then select full image when you post it will help us give you a better opinion Never mind old thread. IMO
