Well to be honest with you - it always matters. Even the coins struck in this century - those with the Red designation will sell for more than those with the Red/Brown or Brown designation.</p><p><br /></p><p>Copper is a highly reactive metal, it oxidizes very quickly and turns to the familiar brown color we all know. So most collectors always strive to add the Red cents to their collections. But if not stored properly and protected from the air - they will quickly turn to brown.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
