    I am finding these so easily at work and was wondering if any of these are key or semi key or if they are all common. Not that I even really know what that even means. LOL

    Hi kdkenn,
    My collecting began about 1 1/2 years ago when I started on Lincolns.
    What I can say about the Lincolns from 1951 thru 1958 is that I have purchased business uncirculated rolls of all of them at one time or another, and still have plenty left. As far as collecting them in circulation, I think you would be lucky to find any of the wheats in all of those years and mints, certainly not the 1919 and 1923.
    In the many thousands of wheats I have purchased at various places I do not have even a full roll of either the 1919 or 1923. This might prove to the contrary in the future as people seem to be digging into their change jars and piggy banks and using their coins for purchases.

    Be sure you check all the coins you find very carefully for errors and varieties as you search them for quality. Other than that, not much I can say about the Lincolns you have listed.

    finding them easily might seem like they are worthless, but dont be fooled. The copper content allone is more then a cent each, so i would keep all of them you find!
