    Hi. i started collecting pennies last weekend. i have found it very fun and entertaining. i hope to post my finding and have a few more people judge my coins.
    i started buying rolls on Monday, and have went threw about 4 or 5 a night. these coins im going to show i think are minor errors. but i still want to see if there more than face value.

    If you're looking at the memorial cents only, don't put any cents that are in bad condition. You're going to come across many MS/AU ones over the years and when you find that Gem 1959, you don't want to have the ugly brown one filling up the spot.

    Welcome! You've already made a lot of nice progress on the Lincoln cent collection! I'm not an error expert, but what do you think may be errors on those coins? I don't see anything that may be an error, but I may not be looking in the right places.
