<p>[QUOTE=&quot;steve63, post: 2325594, member: 76463&quot;]Amen to that.&nbsp; Occasionally I&#039;ll get a few penny rolls from the bank and remove all the pre-1982&#039;s.&nbsp;&nbsp; I also remove any freshly minted coins (which normally would only be pennies 1-2 years old).&nbsp; The rest go in the discard pile and what&#039;s interesting is that the discard pile of 1982-2012 coins is the ugliest pile.&nbsp; The pre-1982 pile is mostly coins from 60s and 70s and although they are understandably more toned than the 80s and 90s coins, the 80s and 90s coins are uglier....they are typically covered with smudges and stains and the dates are frequently well worn.&nbsp; Unlike most of the 70s coins where the date is still sharp even though the coin may be brown.&nbsp; The Zincolns do not seem to age well at all, and I&#039;ll bet there&#039;s going to be a day when it&#039;s harder to find an 80s pennies in excellent condition than it will be to find a 60s or 70s penny in that same condition.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
