Can someone explain to me what the deal is with the 1970 S mint pennies? I came across this one. What makes them a sought for coin? Is particular one considered a rare valuable coin?
For the 1970 S (Business Strike, or the coins meant for people to spend) Lincoln Memorial Cent, there are a couple big die varieties: *Doubled Die Obverse *Small Date *Repunched Mint Mark (S/S) For the Proof 1970 S (coins with a mirror like finish, meant for collectors and sold in plastic cases): *Small Date All of these are explained in detail in many places (seemingly five times a day here as well) BUT a good website with good pictures is the Lincoln Cent Resource. Your is not any of the above varieties. Welcome to the forum
