[QUOTE="yummy money, post: 1156132, member: 29445"][b]My $20,000 find ? 1992 AM CLOSE PENNY[/b] I hate to brag but.... my father found this last month cracking rolls of pennies from his Local Credit Union Bank which he has been doing for the past year. Anyways he came across a few mint errors or varieties such as a Wide Am from 1998 or 1999 pennies and a Double Die Lincoln worth $500....but in our condition he said it was worth $50-$100 . Well then last month my father found a very scarce coin. The 1992 Philadelphia "Close Am" Lincoln Cent. I actually have a Post here on "whats it worth" topics. Anyways we sent it to NGC and scored not only the highest grade, but the only one graded "RED" . We got a MS 62 Red ! There have been 7 found and graded. All graded by NGC & Pgcs. AU 55 Brown (2 graded) / AU 55 Red Brown / AU 58 Brown (3 graded) Then our coin Mint State 62 Red. Ken Potter said in a story that a High AU grade (AU58) is worth over $10,000 . So our coin is worth way more than that since its the only red - mint state one graded. So far only the AU 55 Brown (lowest graded one) sold for $4,830 in Jan 2009. We are very fortunate to find such a great coin. Is this one of the best finds heard here ?[/QUOTE]
