<p>[QUOTE="smithrow1, post: 119609, member: 4585"]Today I went to my fathers to help him out and he gave me a small box of coins. In the box he had about $5.00 in silver, about a roll of jefferson nickels, 4- 1970's proof sets, 1864 2-cent piece, seated quarter with rays and arrows and about 250 wheat pennies. Well I checked the silver then put the nickels in the bucket with other 1940's Jeffersons. Now to the pennies about 1/2 I put in the junk wheat bag for scratches and spots and the green corrosion. I was almost done and only found 4 under 1940 when it happened. I looked at this penney and it was a 1922 so I then looked and saw no D. Well now my heart started pumping and I got my PCGS Identification book out and my loupe. I knew that there was a weak D variety. First I checked the second 2 to see if bolder then the first and it checked out. Then test 2 the (WE) was weaker and mushy then the word "Trust". The coin has a VG obverse and a fine reverse. There are some small green corrosion spots. I will take it. What a great find. Qestesion is should I do anything about the spots? What would be its vaule? About 1/2 of VG?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
