<p>[QUOTE=&quot;VT4Pac, post: 3284556, member: 94961&quot;]Here is the way I look at it, just my opinion. If its an extreme example that can be seen without the use of magnification or a coin with multiple chips or cracks, I will put it in a 2x2 to save in my collection. Also, if it is a coin with a chip or crack in an interesting location relative to the design of the coin, its a keeper. People tend to seek these out, create nicknames for them, and they command a premium.</p><p><br /></p><p>All of the other minor ones I come across I save in red solo cups. There&#039;s a small niche in the coin collecting community that loves to collect them, even if they aren&#039;t worth anything above face value. Once I have a significant amount of minor examples I then sell them together for a small premium. One individual example by itself that isn&#039;t significant, when combined with many others of its kind, can bring a small premium.</p><p><br /></p><p>I actually started a similar thread a while ago with a couple of examples. <a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/die-cracks-and-die-chips-s.326544/#post-3228754" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/die-cracks-and-die-chips-s.326544/#post-3228754">https://www.cointalk.com/threads/die-cracks-and-die-chips-s.326544/#post-3228754</a> Only had 1 reply, but I decided this was the way to go for me and its worked out pretty well so far. </p><p><br /></p><p>Really its like JCro57 said, collect what you like. I have plenty of coins I save because I think they&#039;re cool. Many of these coins others would throw back into circulation but I like them. The few I do sell help me buy supplies for the hobby or go towards purchasing other coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
