<p>[QUOTE="zekeguzz, post: 1074492, member: 15455"]I check for rotated dies and have found three 45* or more. Next I check for key dates, doubled dies, and wheaties. Any cent that is in better condition/higher grade I keep and replace what I already have in my albums. One thing I do after I have filled my little box which can hold about 1000 cents is I slide a strong magnet through all of them just in case of what looks like a copper is really a steely or a fake. No luck yet. OH, I ALWAYS wear cotton gloves. So many times I have seen coins marred by fingerprints. Also cents really are dirty.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
