[QUOTE="Spark1951, post: 3033542, member: 90692"]VF20-XF40, [I][B]not worth grading.[/B][/I] It is worth keeping if you don't have a better one. No one will buy it for more than the copper it contains, which, about a month ago was about 2.1 cents. You, and anyone else who reads this, must learn now to avoid wasting time and $ on this type of worn coin, and that goes for all denominations and all countries. Unless it fills a hole for a "type" collection, or has true rarity/error characteristics, spend it. It's not worth even putting into a cardboard flip. I'm not telling you this to be mean to you, I truly don't wan't you to waste time. Just in the past year I have put aside over 200 of exactly this type of coin, pre-'82 copper and the only benefit I can see from doing that is I am keeping them out of circulation and saving everybody tons of time. If it were legal to melt them, they would already be copper slag. Spark[/QUOTE]
