A few finds from $70 of pennies

I went though about $70 worth of pennies recently and these are a few of the ones that stuck out to me, let me know what you think, I'm still new to all of this, sorry if some of my images seem a little blurry, and there might be some dust on some of them. The color looks a little off on most of them. that one looks good. What would you grade them? and do you think it's worth getting any of them graded by NGC?

First up is a 1985-D

Get them graded?

Save your money

 

The 1992-D could be a RPM (Re-punched mark) but i'm not sure that is possible because of the recent date. Anyway RPM's are very collectible and great to have. I say keep all of them, certainly not to be graded.

 

The 1992 is Plate split doubling (split plate doubling). This is an explantion by foundinrolls in an earlier thread:

""Plate split doubling" is the effect that we see on a coin when the sharp edges of a die actually break through the copper plating. Occasionally the zinc is exposed along the edge of the numerals or lettering or design details creating the appearance of doubling."

​

 

That's a sweet looking '57 for a circulation find.

 

All those wheaties are amazing for circulation finds. Almost unbelievably so. I typically pull one BU wheat penny every $500.

Nothing worth getting graded though.

 

I'd never heard of Plate Split Doubling before, thanks for the explanation of it. Are these fairly common? and are they worth holding on to?

The 57 might be from a lot of wheats I bought a little before the rolls but the 52's and 45 are from the rolls for sure.

Thanks everybody that's commented so far

 

Very common and not an error. You'll find lots of these and it's basically just damage.

 

Nice finds! As ikan said, the split plating is common, considered a defect and definately not collectable.

 

This link explains the non-collectible types of doubling:

Thanks for that link, it was very informative!

 

Why do they look silver :/

 

The coin in the last two pics is silver colored. The pics of the cents, just glare.
