<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NOS, post: 3191117, member: 2098&quot;]When one thinks about it, 1953 was less than 45 years since they were last minted. It&#039;s not too different these days from finding cents that were minted in the mid-70&#039;s and of course it&#039;s still pretty common to find cents in circulation from the 1960&#039;s and even earlier. What&#039;s interesting to think about is Indian Heads still turn up in rolls because the diameter of the cent for them is still the same. If large cents hadn&#039;t been discontinued (or if cent coins had always been their current size) I wonder how long it would have been common to find pre-1857 cents in circulation. Imagine buying a box of cents to go through in the present day and finding one from circa 1810.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
