[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3021542, member: 77814"]A coworker of mine, their uncle passed away a couple years ago. He left a large hoard of coins. I haven't seen any of it yet, but I provided them one of my Redbooks a couple years ago and for example with Quarters told them to look at the quarters that are worth $10 or more (in the book) and look for those specific ones; and also look for the Silver ones. They found none. ($10 being a mark that they would be willing to give time to find) Matter of fact it seems this guy did one thing that I do but more to the extreme. For instance, I keep all the Bald Eagle quarters I get in change and put my pennies into decade containers. This guy seems to have just kept all of his change for decades. After they went through all of the quarters (looking for the valuable ones) they found nothing. So now they're wondering about the cents/pennies; they are thinking of just dumping it all in a change machine. With all the errors and stuff out there what should I tell them are the major years / mintmarks to look for. They're opting to just dump everything in a coin machine at this point. They've had these coins now for about 3 years and only have gone through the quarters. They're going to bring me in a small box of pennies just to sift through so I have an idea of what they have. But the collection really didn't contain any early coins or anything numismatic that stuck out, just a pocket change for decades so far. So what would be specific years/mintmarks and errors to look for in cents?[/QUOTE]
