Message:: [QUOTE="Prospector, post: 846742, member: 18940"]The first one is a 1963. it's pretty dirty so it's hard to tell what that chip might be. It also has some weirdness about the E in Liberty too. I'm still researching it. The 1971 has been thoroughly checked out on Coppercoins and the Lincoln Cent Resourse site. it's idententical to the one in my Avatar only I cleaned it after realizing it was so damaged. I use it for comparisons now. I'm actually headed over to the bank in a few minutes to redeem some checked pennies and I'm going to fight the urge to buy more..LOL. I'll probably end up buying nickels, it might be my new addiction if not Indian Head Cents. Here's my theory. " You might find only 1960 small dates and they might only be worth eight bucks or so a piece but, if you collect 1,000 of them over a time span of a year that's 8,000 dollars in value." The last box of pennies I bought I found eight wheats, two 1919 S's a 1929 and a 1930 and a few 40's and 50s. I have also found BU 1937's and 44's and 54's in boxes in BU condition. That sort of makes it too much fun. All it takes is one good coin out of the whole box to make it fun. Good luck with the organizing ( pounding head ) Oh, and take it from me, I've spend thousands on eBay on rolls. There is good sellers out there, you just have to reseach them and trust alittle and yes, it is somewhat of a gamble but use Common Sense, Intuition and Logic and it can be pleasant. Peace![/QUOTE]
