<p>[QUOTE=&quot;claycad, post: 1163550, member: 17987&quot;]I keep the very first new design of any coin I get back from each mint in change, and I always order an uncirculated P and D of new designs as well as a proof of the coin. After that, I just throw them in my change jar. I appreciate the history of the cent, I&#039;m trying to get at least a P mint from every year, so I go through my change for the years that I don&#039;t have yet, but I&#039;m not going to hoard every penny I get back. I do keep any wheat cents I find as well as pre 1965 quarters and dimes and &quot;war nickles&quot; if I come across any. It rarely happens, but sometimes I get lucky. I&#039;m just waiting for the day I get an Indian head back in some change. I&#039;ll jump for joy then, lol. Other then what I just mentioned all my change gets saved, deposited, and spent on other coins that I want.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sometimes I want to spend some of my least valuable poor grade IHC (I have several) just to put a few in circulation. Eventually somebody that appreciated coins would know what it was and it would make their week when they got it back in their pocket change, even if it was a low grade from a common year. I just can&#039;t get myself to actually spend one though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
