[QUOTE="saucejon1983, post: 1524245, member: 37932"]I'm sure that I am in no way the first person to think of this, but I wanted some feedback and input for more educated and experienced people than myself. I keep thinking about those people who have been collecting since the 50's when they were a kid and they have beautiful examples of old coins they collected when they were new and have stored for 60 years and now they have alot of coin worth quite a bit. Like the wheat pennies, they stopped being made and now alot of people search for them in good condition and certain years go for alot of money. In 60 years, what coins will people be searching for that they stopped making? What if i have alot of those coins i kept since they were new? Like the Lincoln Cent reverse that ended in 2008? Those coins are gone. So I have gotten my hands on some rolls of brand new 2012 coins, sorted through, found the 21 best coins i could from them, and 20 I put in my coin holder sheets and 1 I am keeping seperate, considering having the 1 best from each coin and mint mark of each year graded to store. Do you guys think this is throwing money away? Or a good thing to do? I thank you all in advance for your thoughts and opinions.[/QUOTE]
