here i go again. im new at this and was hoping someone with more experience would share their opinion of coin's authentencity or have info?
i appologise my friend you said i did not post pics / i am a new member " and " a new coinhound. i am still figuring out how to work the cointalk.com web site. i seek intelligent , educated information so I can grow and learn that's what I thought this website was all about. So I'm sorry if I I am creating any problems for you or wasting your time. thankyou!
It's ok no big deal sometimes we get people who creates more then 1 thread trying to get different results, your doing fine. Dave
@wayner-dude - Not sure where you heard about the 1982d SMALL DATE copper cent (my guess being youtube) but just realize that there has been ONE of these found thus far...out of over 6 BILLION minted. You are looking for a needle in a stack of needles. You'd have better chances winning the lottery while being struck by lightning. I'm not saying don't search for them...just trying to temper your expectations. There are plenty of other cool things out there to be found that are more within the realm of possibility. EDIT: I forgot to add....@paddyman98
Large date. (It's always going to be a large date if it's copper.) One small date copper 1982-D was found, and I believe another will turn up one day, but you or I aren't going to find it.
The mods ask that we not start multiple threads on the same coin. Believe it or not, it seems like almost every day we get someone posting two or more of such threads and it only makes more work for the mods since they usually combine them anyway. No harm, no foul, but is just something to keep in mind and I'm guessing was Dave's intended point. As has already been said, your coin is a large date and valued at one cent. Consider it part of the learning experience and you'll be the better for it. Welcome to the forum, Wayne.
What, what? I was quite simply clarifying that the OP does not have such a valuable coin. Furry was simply emphasizing the point while making a lighthearted observation regarding most of the folks (not necessarily the OP) we see asking about 82's.
