The back side of the penny

 

How bout another one with the s mark

 

How about clicking edit on your posts then clicking on the full size option next to the photo. Just make sure you don't offer them for sale here. you must go to BUY sell or trade to do that.

 

Just trying to help on the photo aspect of posting. it is much easier when full size.
Those coins are spenders worth 1 cent each.

 

Ditto on Picken's comments, and post obverse and reverse photos to the same post, not separately.

 

If you really want responses you have to ask specific question ...heat do you see?

 

Normal cents worth just that, one cent each. The 1961 D is nice for it's age but no real value.

 

Hi @Ryan angulo ! Welcome to coin Talk. I know you posted that you do not know what you are doing and are asking for some help. What made you post these coins and maybe I/we can help you out and give you some pointers on things to look for going forward!

 

Both look normal and are worth face value. Welcome to CT.

 

Thank u I really appreciate it ,but if everybody thinks the 1969 s penny is worth face value then u probly need to go to the dmv and get ur eyes checked or wipe ur glasses off ur it’s clear that the 6 is not straight it’s a lil bit turned to the left

 

That’s not directed to u bambam8778 ur the only one that offered to help me instead of shoot me out the sky like everybody else

 

I came off way to strong today and I am sorry, another member was very polite in tell ing you about hijacking a thread.
Please stick around I have been short lately. That's my bad.

I do only stand less than 5'8"

 

If you’re interested in collecting coins, may I suggest starting out by buying yourself a Red Book, reading about all the US issues and focusing in on what interests you. Don’t pay attention to the price charts. Then study the minting process.

Please don’t waste time looking for errors in pocket change. And don’t pay attention to eBay videos and these insipid “Get Rich With Pocket Change” books and articles.

 

Sorry, but the 1969 S is worth face value. Perfectly normal, just suffering from fifty years of wear and tear. Not being rude at all or shooting you out of the sky, just speaking the truth learned from 50 years of studying and collecting coins. Hang around here and listen to what the folks have to say and you will be learning in no time!

 

That sucks I thought I had a diamond in the rough and struck gold

 

That level of attitude is cruzing dangerously close to the ignore button. You asked our help, several experienced members responded and YOU know better?

OK, I'll hold off for one more post...

 

Not possible. ALL the dies used to make the coins came from working hubs that all came from the SAME Master die. So if one die had a rotated numeral ALL of the dies and all of the coins made from them would have the same rotated numeral.

 

Well, they are pre-1982, so, when added to a heap of other such items could actually get more at melt value, wouldn't they?

 

Barely... There are a bunch of YouTube videos from people who melt metal. uses up a fair amount of propane to get copper hot enough to pour into a mold.

There's also a Federal regulation that makes it illegal to melt cents and nickels. So you have to DIY...
