<p>[QUOTE=&quot;d_lairson, post: 277562, member: 8441&quot;]After looking around online, and posting on this forurm, I decided to try and put together a couple of &quot;grading&quot; sets of Lincoln cents. The problem that I am running into is finding low grade examples of lincoln cents. I only really collect the memorial cents. This means that the oldest memorial cent I can look for is a 1959. If I want a set of current composition cents, the oldest I can look for is a 1982. I can find the higher grade coins, if I look and want to spend the money, but the low grade ones are impossible to find. </p><p><br /></p><p>I must have over 200 1982&#039;s and I don&#039;t know if I would grade one less than a VF. Is it just because the coins have not been in circulation long enough to have that much ware? How long does a cent take to ware down that much?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks,</p><p>David[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
