<p>[QUOTE=&quot;alexthebold, post: 1710355, member: 50759&quot;]I went looking at some of the places online for coin irregularities. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Apparently there&#039;s enough people out there looking awfully closely at Lincoln cents that I could fill three asylums and still have enough left over for a major political convention. I admire dedication, but how does anyone do this? I either have dozens of very rare pennies in my change jar, or I am unable to distinguish between wide AM&#039;s and closed AM&#039;s. I&#039;m gonna have dreams about Lincoln tonight: &quot;Alex, check the back of my head. If you can see initials, then I must be a 1978-D. In fine condition, I&#039;m worth $5,000. Only three of me have ever been found ...&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Can anyone offer some advice on some sort of methodology for looking? Do you just accumulate the things to be on the lookout for, or do people have a checklist? Is sorting the coins first the preferred method of attack or is it more Zen, with the discoveries being just the things people happen to notice while they happen to be staring at the backside of a random penny with a magnifying glass for 15 minutes?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
