Hey I'm just gonna point this out in case no one was aware. Make sure to check(weigh them) the Bicentennial Lincoln cents. Though the ones minted for circulation are zinc, the ones that were minted for the uncirculated sets are the original 95% copper make up. You might get lucky and stumble across a NIFC 2009 Lincoln bicentennial cents.

 

traded 2-1967 half's 4 %80 Canadian dimes 2 war nickles for. 1912 barber quarter, 1912 d barber dime, 1912 no mm barber dime and 60 coin filps and 7 binder pages to hold the 2x2's. why am i posting this in the roll-searches area! because the items that i traded i have found in the past 2 weeks! do you think i did well??

 

Got skunked on $260 in dimes as far silvers and other goodies, but each of the CWR rolls had an extra 1-2 dimes in there. I guess that's pretty good, right?

 

Finished off 8 boxes of cents for the week. 3 boxes gave up 50 wheats (oldest was a VG10 1910) and a 20% off center strike zincon. The other 5 boxes gave me 12,500 shiny new 2012P's....

 

better than being 1-2 dimes short per CWR.

What is it? I can see Pittsburgh.. I'm in Pittsburgh. What is it?!

 

cwt?

 

That's what I was thinking. When I first saw the obverse, I thought it was a FE!

 

Mercury Double date and double LIBerty

Bought 22 rolls at $102 a roll last week, So far I've examined 11 rolls and found 8 goodies including this one that got overlooked by the seller. I use a 50X just to make sure I don't miss something. A machine doubled 1924.

 

Cash4coin that date kind of looks like machine doubling to me but I am far far from an expert so please don't take my word for it.

 

It is a token from around the time of the civil war. An NGC graded uncirculated piece sold on ebay for $63.
