[QUOTE="dave_in_delaware, post: 2557729, member: 82414"]I've recently discovered a local estate cleanout / consignment store in my area that I have visited maybe 3 times so far. The main reason for visiting this store initially is that it sells firearms, ammo, and accessories (probably not a big surprise if you've noticed my avatar).... But, it also sells a decent variety of other things, including very old coins and proof sets, as well as paper currency. Long story short, on a whim, I bought a few things there in the hopes of expanding my tiny collection of coins. Specifically, my US pennies collection. I picked up three coin folders to help me organize a little bit more: United States Cents 1909-1958 Lincoln Penny - Collection No. 2 Starting 1946 Lincoln Memorial Cents - Collection Starting 1959 The nice thing was that each folder already had some pennies in it. Many of which I did not have in my collection yet. Total number of pennies included is 128. Oldest is a 1929. Most interesting (to me) is a bright silver one dated 1943. At a total price of $9 I couldn't leave it all at the store. Thanks for reading. I just thought I'd share my find with my CoinTalk family. Now, to catalog it all....[/QUOTE]
