I would never spend it, just becuase it's worth 2 cents dosnt mean it's no cool. Unless 1 centis too much to withhold from spending for you
I'd keep it...I have probably 3 pounds of common wheaties...not too valuable but fun to find and keep. And it's only 1 cent...can't buy much with that nowadays!
Definitely keep it. It's not worth a fortune, but the 1930s wheat cents show up less frequently than the 1940s and 1950s wheat cents.
1935 wheats are common. there only worth 3 cents, but still neat! rules of coin collecting 1.never spend any cent 1958 and older 2.never spend any nickel 1959 and older. 3. never spend any dimes or quarters 1964 and older. 4.never spend any half dollar 1970 and older. also look out for S mintmarks on coins. these are proofs, and sometimes can be worth some money. not all s mintmarks are proofs though.
I think that what you said is important so important that i am printing that out and gonna put it with my collecticion
San Francisco stopped producting circulation coins at some time after the Bicentennial, and many older P & D coins are proofsl. Perhaps one of the forum members who collect US coins can give us the exact changeover date.
thanks! here are some more tips. save any cent 1982 and older because they are made out of copper and worth more than a cent. to be on the safeside, just save the 1981 and older cents. also look for S minmarks on 1975-2007 cents because these are proofs. also save any cent 1968-1974 S mintmark because they are harder to find. with nickels, save anything 1959 and older. i save 1965 and older, but not many people do this. i usually save 1968-1970 S mintmarks becuase they are rarer. also save 1971-2007 S mintmarks becuase these are proofs. with dimes, save anything 1964 and back. these are silver. if you want to save the 1969 dimes, becuase i heard they didn't make too many of this year. not 1969D, just 1969 plain.also save any s mintmark dime, all s mintmark dimes with an s mintmarks are proofs. with quarters save 1964 and older. also save all s mintmarks becuase they are proofs. save all bicentinial, new jersey, pennsylvania, and delaware quarters becuase they will get harder to find as time goes on. with half dollars save anything 1970 and older. also save the S mintmarks, these are all proofs. save the 1987 half dollars because they were not meant for circulation. save all half dollars 2002 and newer becuase they too were not meant for circultion. with dollars, save the large sized dollars and S mintmarks. well, hope this helps!
