<p>[QUOTE="jglover, post: 592958, member: 18736"]Thanks for all the replies. I was just curious as a local dealer here told me this cent was just basically junk and he was going to go out of his way to give me $10 for it. I'm not interested in selling due to the sentimental value but was curious about the coin. I tried to grade it myself and I ended up coming up with a F12 to maybe a VF,assuming it was in good shape. So I'm glad to see my grading skills are pretty much in line with what you guys think. I also realize the damage will reduce the value. My dad also had several semi keys in his stash, so I'm going to look through those as well and maybe post the better ones here to get an opinion. I've got a 10S, 11D, 11S (really beat up and damaged), a 13D, 13S, 15, 21S, 23S, 26S, 31D and 33D.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as I know, my Dad never really bought any of these so I'm assuming these were all collected from circulation in the 1960s.
