<p>[QUOTE="*coins, post: 3189416, member: 94595"]I picked up some Lincoln cents a few years and they have been sitting every since. I got a good deal for a bunch of folders for $75 and it had almost all coins from 1909-2007 (and separate proofs) and many keys (no S-VDB, 22 NO D, OR 31-S).</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyways, I was looking through it the other day.
