[QUOTE="Ferdyboy, post: 904020, member: 25361"]It depends what you are looking for with pennies. If you're just looking for scarce dates those rarely turn up. But if you're looking for error coins, there are many to be found in late date cents. I've only been searching pennies for a couple of weeks and so far have found: 3 broadstrikes (worth about $10 each) 1 1994 double column reverse (worth about $40) 1 1995 doubled die "LIBERTY" (worth about $90) 1 no "DBS" (worth about $1) 1 1980 S over D double mintmark (worth about $50) I have yet to find the elusive "Close AM" 1992's or the "Wide AM" 1998, 1999, 2000's. I also bought two boxes of cents with the intention of searching them and both boxes turned out to be the new cents---all mint wrapped new uncirculated 2010 shield cents---which are selling for over $50 a box on ebay (for a $25 box). Don't give up on the pennies unless you just want the scarce dates![/QUOTE]
