<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cannoncoins, post: 1743982, member: 28659&quot;]That&#039;s a great story, thanks for sharing.&nbsp; I remember sorting through the giant jar of pennies at my grandmother&#039;s home that HER mother had saved from her drugstore at the turn of the century.&nbsp; Each year for Christmas she would let me sift through a few, grade them, price them using the redbook (which at the time I knew as the only price guide) and keep $25 (redbook value) worth (I was very conscientious of trying to not undergrade at all; little did I know that using the redbook I was pricing them pretty high to begin with).&nbsp; When I was 11 I stumbled upon an 1914-D Penny, and I explained to my amazed grandmother how much it was worth.&nbsp; Of course, *I* turned into the amazed one when she told me to go ahead and &quot;add it to my little pile for this Christmas.&quot;&nbsp; I kept it in the little cardboard whitman folder for YEARS and now have taken it out to slab it, but I wouldn&#039;t sell it- even for twice its redbook value!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>--- </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Silver and gold are not the only coin; virtue too passes current all over the world.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; -&nbsp; Euripides</p><p><a href="http://www.coinsignment.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinsignment.com" rel="nofollow">www.coinsignment.com</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
