<p>[QUOTE=&quot;USS656, post: 634487, member: 6641&quot;]Went through a box of cents recently that a collector must have brought into the bank. The most interesting part of going through the box was three marked rolls of 1982P cents. There were both varieties of copper and Zinc with the date size all looking the same. Hoping to find an example of the newly discovered DDR. What I found were at least 15 different different coins with at least 14 unique die cracks. That means 14 different dies from the Philly mint were represented in these three rolls.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I have very high resolution pictures that I did not include due to the size. From these montages you can see the cracks although a couple are very hard to spot due to the early stage of the crack. I have just started really looking at these coins. You can see most of these are uncirculated or very close to it. You can see how clean many of the rims are. About 7 of the 15 have multiple cracks.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The strike on these is very light on most of these and many of the letters are mushy. Some have very defined polish marks while others have very few marks besides the cracks and nice luster.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It has been interesting and will continue to provide some lunch time fun as I look at the different issues under the scope at work. Let me know if you want a better view of an particular coin.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Thoughts / Comments / Snide Remarks - All Welcome... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Best Regards ~ Darryl</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee123/USS656/AllUnitedCrop2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee123/USS656/AllAmericacrop1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee123/USS656/AllOnecrop1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
