<p>[QUOTE="Blissskr, post: 1587922, member: 34882"]Except they enroll you in that auto send coin program if you took them up on this offer, which I've read is a pain to cancel out of. There's also a difference between a steel cent even a cleaned one vs a reprocessed one. Here's some of my personal steel cents and some 'reprocessed' ones that I took the photo from Ebay. It's really easy to see the difference in ones that have been re-plated or reprocessed, whatever you want to call it. I don't condone what Littleton is doing but they are a business and the goal is to make money. The reprocessed steel cents do make nice gift coins to give to children though as they like them shiny and the coins are basically worthless anyway. I didn't feel like digging through my coins to find some that have circulated/corroded but without reprocessing the coins are usually in horrible shape and reprocessing almost gives them a second life. If that second life inspires a kid to start collecting that's a good thing in my opinion. But I've seen some places online selling reprocessed ones for quite a bit which I don't particularly agree with myself.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]220807.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]220808.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
