    Thank you; I appreciate your input. What th gentleman truly hasn’t figured into the equation isbmy acquisition cost. Because he doesn’t know it as I haven’t shared it. I am doing this as a mix of fun and cost. I thoroughly enjoy searching coins, but I also cannot afford to lose money to have this fun. I’m blessed enough to make a little money and have fun searching.

    @sakata has a point. I’m in a place where I have access to lots and lots of coins and also have little competition for varieties. Keep searching!

    Maybe just let the guy post his finds.

    If people went after politicians in this country same way they go after each other, I think we'd have a few less problems.

    Went through the last of the possible WAM cents I had. Found one more 2000 WAM.

    After reading your thread, Holy smokes that's a lot of cents.
    Just a reminder, the 88 has a rare doubled ear. and both the 88 and 88D have a type 2 reverse wide am and a flared G that is found on proof reverse cents. The Philly is pretty valuable.

    I’m going to have to skip that one. I’ve decided copper searching only. I can’t search it all!

    For my edification, this is a 1960 small date, correct?

    My guess is acid on this. What’s yours?

    If you know of a machine that sorts by date, you let me know. I’m also in search of a copper non copper sorter. I’m thinking ryedale, but am open to more economical options.

    Not sure? Is it raised above the surface? Or, below?

    Looks pretty clean for a separated lamination, I am not sure?

    Agreed. Setting it aside.

    Here’s one that just looks strange. I’ve seen quite a few of these. This is the strongest. Not sure what causes it. Die deterioration?

    Yes on the small date, but the Philly is the valuable one. The Denver is .01.

    Here’s an off center 1982. Reverse is normal.

    2x 1969-Ds. One with a die chip on the 9, the other with a mint mark very low. Not really significant, but noticeable.

    @Michael K any of these three look like the good one?
