Wow. I did not know you had such an exceptional half collection. “Wow” just doesn’t seem to cut it.
Oh heavens no! It is certainly a fun coin. Just a simple debris or grease filled die. It is a fun coin but certainly not worth the cost of grading.
No, I am afraid not. Just a hit that moved the copper on the date.
Cents were still copper in 1990. Copper is quite soft. Your cent has been struck in such a manner that the date looks out of place.
It is certainly a keeper. The 1950’s era wheat cents were struck in abundance so there is no great intrinsic value.
Looks like an MAD or misaligned die strike to me, though I would defer to @paddyman98. He is far more educated with this type cent. Cool find.
Based on the outline of the reverse toning of the second cent, I would surmise this cent has been taped in somebody’s coin book for a number of...

Oh!! I also meant to add.... Boomer Sooner!!!!

Sadly we have trained an entire generation that they should have all they want now. Just use credit.
That is actually sound advice and easy to accomplish. Brew your own coffee every morning instead of Starbucks and in a years time, you just paid...
That appears to be quite a nice specimen. I would like to defer to @Skyman if he has a second to give this one a look.
Ike dollars are fun and easy to collect. That one is still in the US mint issued cellophane. It originally came with a full set of coins issued by...
That is a nice set. Bicentennial coinage fueled my young numismatic fires back in the day. Good to see them getting a little attention....... I...
I was hoping you would show up here. I believe that three cent silver is the finest example I have ever laid eyes on.
Is it odd that at my age, I still get just a bit giddy when I receive a wheat cent in change? [ATTACH]
Great American Coin Hunt was in April. Collectors and dealers all over the country put collector coins out into circulation. It was an effort to...
I hope it happens for you @C-B-D ...... That is a jaw dropping piece. I can sure understand why that is your dream coin.
