<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Spark1951, post: 7813659, member: 90692&quot;][USER=116358]@Jessie5[/USER] …To help you be a better collector, using the sequence below for your OP&nbsp; ‘64 Jefferson:</p><p>1. Find coin CRH or from circulation.</p><p>2. Assess wear on obverse: medium wear to hair.</p><p>3. Flip over reveals medium to significant wear and corrosion to reverse.</p><p>4. Final assessment: Too much wear and corrosion, worth FV, a spender.</p><p><br /></p><p>Total time expended: 10 seconds (or less).&nbsp; If you had found it in better condition, then it might have gone into a flip.&nbsp; But then, as noted, there were so many made and collected that it will be a long time before they will have any real value.</p><p><br /></p><p>The point is, using more than 10 seconds on a coin in this condition, date and mintage would be a waste of time.&nbsp; Multiply that by 40 for a roll of nickels, then by how many rolls to search and you are talking serious time expenditure.&nbsp; It’s all about recognizing spenders faster.&nbsp; Use research info to your advantage.&nbsp; Especially, use Red Book info for mintages, just for starters…imo…Spark[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
