[QUOTE="Jacob Redshift, post: 7293864, member: 119311"]This is fun! I just found a 1947 wheat penny in “decent” condition. Haha. Meaning I have next to no idea about grading other than what I’ve read about in the last half an hour. I know it isn’t a mint 70! But it’s got nice lines and form on the design and lettering. Overall wear, though. This is my very first post here. Everyone wants to know what their “special” coin is worth (please share your opinions on this one), but I’d also like to know if you all have favorite beginner references online that I could peruse so I don’t ask ALL the same questions... just most of them! Really, monetary worth is nice to hear and all, and my curiosity is piqued, but I just like this coin. Sometimes things just speak to you. You know? I’d love to see examples of coins that may not be worth big bucks, but just speak to you as a collector, and why. Cheers![/QUOTE]
