<p>[QUOTE="Randy Abercrombie, post: 24683586, member: 92655"]This is the great thing about coin collecting. You can hold unimaginable history in your hands quite affordably….. No, there is little intrinsic value there, but volumes of historical importance….. The 1944 cents are often called shell casing cents because the US mint used recycled copper from spent shell casings. There was a world war going on and new copper was necessary for the war effort…. This is history you can touch!….. I would be a tad more optimistic about the value though. Maybe five to ten cents.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
