<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 3071621, member: 15199&quot;]There were approximately 500,000,000 cents made at that mint , that year. Less than 50 have been found in total , and most were found before 1972, mostly the western states, but even if not, the odds have been about 1 in 10 million chances. About equal to the $1,000,000 prize in the Powerball lottery. Today the chances of a random find being one is probably much , much less. The chance of getting struck by lightening this year is only 1 in a million. Yes, they are very valuable, yes people have found them, but so far on the forum no one has shown their actual find that was authenticated. So enjoy&nbsp; collecting for the pleasure , as otherwise one will make more financially, by checking the Coinstar machines in their area. Sure I would like to find one also but.... , Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
