[QUOTE="cladking, post: 24835348, member: 68"]There are a lot of high priced rolls in this date range. Time has been brutal so between dealers dumping them in cash registers and most of the zincolns tarnishing nice choice original rolls sell for some high prices. There is a perception that countless millions of every date were saved but the reality is several dates were lightly saved and attrition has been just as high for them as well. There is another problem which is that some were very poorly made AND lightly saved AND prone to tarnish. So if you can find something like a roll of '84-D cents the coins will be poorly struck and "bubbly" with bad surface covered in tarnish. Finding nice flat surfaces made by dies with smooth surfaces can be difficult. Collectors believe all moderns are common so very few collect them. This allows rarities to exist that nobody knows about. A lot of memorial pennies exist in astounding numbers but collectors stopped saving bags and rolls in 1964 so these numbers are far lower than most assume. Not every date after 1964 is very common.[/QUOTE]
