<p>[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 1245451, member: 31533"]Mirza, glad to hear you like searching for coins, and it's always exciting to find an older date. But you seem disappointed there were no more customer wrapped rolls. Please take it from me, I am finding things in the plastic and paper "bank" wrapped rolls. Basically, thats where coins that are collected from machines all over get wrapped "professionally" and no one is sitting there trying to get the good coins out before they go in their wrappers. So keep trying. I'll bet you will find more coins from the 1920's and 1930's, you just have to keep trying.</p><p>Go look up doubling, because there are a lot of forms of doubling, most of which aren't worth anything. I know, cuz it's taken me 4 years so far to finally get a handle on what is the shelf (machine) doubling as opposed to some of the other similar ones that are worthless doubling. But it's getting better. Go find some 1992-D pennies - you will probably easily find the shelf doubling on those, it's very common.</p><p>Also, it looks as if the coin was left in the gutter for many years or had acid or other corrosives on it. None of that is good for a coin for a good grading, and hence value (generally), but keep it until a better one comes along for you. You will see what I mean.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
