[QUOTE="foundinrolls, post: 77143, member: 4350"]Hi All, Let me put it this way. :-) I usually find about $50.00 worth of stuff in every $50.00 bag of cents. Keep in mind the high worth of the 1998, 1999 and 2000 type 2 Lincolns. Those are the ones mistakenly struck by proof dies. The 1999 is a $500.00 + coin. The other two are in the $20.00 to $30.00 range depending on condition. Just looking for those alone could be worth every second. As an example, I found an MS 63+ 1984D DDO Lincoln worth about $50.00 in the bag I searched last week. You need to get familiar with books like the Cherrypickers' Guide to rare die varieties by Fivaz and Stanton. The possibilities in 150 LBS of pennies are endless and could be very much worth searching through :-) Have Fun, Bill[/QUOTE]
