wheats

I don't know for sure, but I would imagine that the rate would probably equate to double face value or so. That's just a guess anyway.

 

Hi Wheatman21,
The local coin dealer said they are paying 1 1/2 cents per coin right now. I think he meant for copper coins only.

Local shops here pay 3 cents each, and you can get 4 if you look around

 

Depending on the amount you have, your local coin dealer will probably be in the 2-3 cents range. I'm sure you searched through them for keys and semi-keys, but did you check for all the expensive and rare varieties?

Get a good book on lincolns, or go to:

Three cents each or $1.50 per roll. They will pay less for corroded or culls.

 

The local coin shop sells for 3.7 cents and buys back at 3 cents.

So I typically buy 5000 and it cost me $35 dollars to go through them. But I normally find a few low money key dates to make it work my while.

 

3 to 4 cents if you really shop it.

 

thanks for the replies i guess i might as well hold on to them plus i do need to check the varieties

 

Yes 3 to 4 cents if you find the right dealer. I have sold rolls of cent on Ebay and received 0.0495 cents per coin. I sold 18 rolls and received $44.55 after shipping.
