I have pennies but not a copper collector, actually have a lot of pennies. How can you miss something so red? You must've got it eventually since have pic.? I've only a few that I can truly say is red.
It's nice and a keeper..

 

Decent color and steps

 

It's always fun to find an older red cent. Makes me wonder where it was all those years. My son brought me a wheat cent a while back. Looked like it just came out of a fresh roll. Fun stuff.

 

Pocket change or roll hunting?
I have been known to miss a few.
Nice cent.

 

I was putting the coins in the bag to go back to the bank after searching them and I saw this and took it out.

 

While i was putting it in the bank bag it just caught my eye. Now I have it in a 2x2 slip

 

wow

 

Roll hunting.

 

Nice catch!

 

Guys! I decided to re check the entire bag and I got some more amazing condition coins (mostly from the 90s), switzerland 20 rappen, 1982 canada 5 cents, and a bunch of toned coin

 

Great find.

 

The 20 Rappen I found was proof-like, ill post it when i get back to colorado from Vegas. My dad and I were detecting in Primm Nevada with a GMT and MXT 300, my dad and I think we found an old 1800's gambling token. Its all iron and rusty so we cant read anything on it. How do I get some detail without damaging it

 

Cool find

 

I wonder if millionaires stop and admire these beutiful coins??

 

Yes some do.

 

I sent it in to ANACS for kicks and came back 66 Red

 

Very nice!

 

Sweet find!

 

Thanks. Only a few in PCGS holders are that grade)
