<p>[QUOTE=&quot;E Pluribus Unum, post: 2959813, member: 74265&quot;]Holy smokes! That&#039;s a lot of pennies!&nbsp; Do you inspect them carefully for errors or just pull out the wheat cents?</p><p><br /></p><p>Last spring, I found a bag full of Lincoln Memorial cents that my dad had tucked away.&nbsp; I didn&#039;t think much of it since they were Lincoln Memorial cents.&nbsp; I decided to transfer them into rolls when I noticed that pennies were dated 1968 and earlier.&nbsp; So I have hundreds of these Lincoln Memorials - most of which are bright red and lustrous.&nbsp; Moreover, when I first started collecting (via roll searching) as a child in the late 1970&#039;s, I never returned any of the pennies that I got from the bank.&nbsp; I kept them in shoe boxes.&nbsp; So, I started looking through those and I found hundreds of red lustrous beauties mostly from 1971 and 1977. Finding red lustrous Lincoln Memorial cents from the 60&#039; and 70&#039;s is getting harder and harder. When I get some time, I want to go through them and learn how to identify errors.&nbsp; I am fortunate to have plenty of beautiful specimens to examine.&nbsp; A great chance to gain valuable experience.&nbsp; As mentioned here on CoinTalk a plethora of times, experience is the basis of learning.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
