[QUOTE="ikandiggit, post: 765607, member: 16269"]I've bought large quantities of U.S. cents to search through over the last year. I knew from the start that the keys and semi-keys had been pulled but I was more interested in varieties and errors that I knew had been over-looked. The person I bought them from is a dealer and an old friend of mine and I know what his primary stock is. The price was right and I had fun going through them. I have three sets of circulated wheats and memorials each missing just the keys and semi-keys. Plus I have a nice collection of errors and varities. I know that I can sell the remainder for probably more than I paid for all of them so I essentially put together a few collections without any cost. I won't get rich from this but it is a hobby that I really enjoy. So, basically it comes down to what you expect from your purchase. I wouldn't count on anything valuable. Usually bulk coins are the remainders or rejects. Good luck on whatever you decide!:)[/QUOTE]
