Wheat pennies...

There are a number of key dates in that time frame. Condition of the coins will really determine value.

But if I told you I got a nickel in change, you would know that I don't have any Pennys or cents??? BTW this one is a Proof.

 

I wonder if one of the TPG's would grade your penny?

 

Welcome Daniel, like @wxcoin says...and the '09 S- VDB is "the key" to any Wheatie collection.

 

I know you are just joshing me, really? You should read up on the 1883 Liberty nickle.Not only is it a good story but I'll bet my nickle is worth slightly more than your pickle, Hahaha!

 

I would gladly do it!

 

Thanks fish. I don't have the key. Bummer! I'll deal for it somehow.

 

I would call the 1914-D a key as well; especially in higher grades. The 1909 - 1915 S mint coins are also valuable; especially in higher grades. Did she have the 1922 no D? That coin can be as valuable as the1909-S VDB

 

I have the 14 D

 

Also the 9-15 S

 

What do think the grades are for these coins? A higher grade 14-D can push $1000. The early S mints can bring over $100 each in decent grades.

 

I'm new to this, I really don't know about grades and such.

 

Let me put it differently, then. There are pickles, and there are...nickels.

 

They are not UNC but they are in reasonably good shape.

 

There are several good books on how to grade Lincoln cents. The one I use is the "Grading Standards for United States Coins by the American Numismatic Association".

 

Do I have to buy it or can I look this up online or the library?

 

If anybody wants a wheat penny for a collection, let me know. I have about 1500 of them dated in the 40s and 50s (let's say 40 thru 59) just to be clear.

 

Use the link I gave earlier to the PhotoGrade webpage

 

Daniel, check your 44's for a D/S (D over S) and 46's for an S/D...do you have a 10X loupe? If not, I's suggest you invest in one...about $10 bucks.

 

Mom also gave me an 1858 Flying Eagle penny of fairly good condition. What might it be worth?
