Your coins could be rare and worth Millions!..

Or... buy up every single coin of that specific year of penny and then destroy them all except for maybe 3 of them.

Example: Buy up every 1943 steel penny of every grade and then destroy all of them except for 2 - 3. Then you will have the only 2 - 3 1943 steel pennies in existence. That should up the value some.

Had I thought this way back when I was 20 years old, I would have suggested this to my mother. Destroy the 16 one-pound coffee cans full of bicentennial quarters she has hoarded in her closet and that might drive up the value a little. Who knows, she might have done it.

@VistaCruiser69 . when my mother died I found a little over $700 dollars in "K" bills. She was convinced the K stood for Kennedy. I have no idea if they had any numismatic value. James

 

Depends. What year were the bills? A number of years ago, I got in my change a perfect mint condition 1963 Dallas Texas $1 bill. I figured someone had it stuck away since it was new, because of the immaculate condition the bill was in. I thought about it for a while and eventually figured that perhaps someone stuck it away because Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas Texas two weeks after these bills were issued.

There are coins in circulation that could be worth millions, though. And there's a simple strategy to profit from them!

1) Look for coins that are in particularly nice condition, with little circulation wear and no damage.

2) Carefully put them into containers that will protect them from damage.

3) Tuck them away for 100 to 500 years, or until the minimum wage exceeds $1,000,000 per hour.

 

Thanks for the tip.
I'll be selling my inventory of Bicentennial quarters soon to buy an island with it's own airport and sandy white beaches.

 

Awesome! I'll be visiting, maybe.

 

Maybe YOUR coin could be worth millions......
MY coins are definitely NOT!!! Maybe tens! Maybe a hundred or so. NOT millions!
