I learned about coin collecting from my grandma rest her soul. She taught me all about the markings and errors in minting etc I have been saving every wing back penny and any other different looking coins ever since. It's fun to go through them! Thank you for the valuable information!
A bit of information that will truly add meaning to my collection... Thank you for sharing ! Sharing this kind of information is what sets you apart from all the others ! We appreciate you greatly, Take care !
Low mintage is fine. But unlike the historic low mintage pennies you mentioned, these were minted to be collected. So years from now 98% of them will still exist.
Did I hear you right they are made of copper and not zinc in need just the mint set or is the proof set copper also if you could let me know I'd appreciate it please God bless
Just got an unopened uncirculated set in the mail today. Opened it and immediately found 2 errors 1) Lincoln penny double thumb variety and 2) double die reverse on the District of Columbia quarter. I haven’t even gone over the full set yet….
I found a 2009 D Penny and it was turned to its back where Lincon is sitting down on the log stump. I took a look at the penny thinking I'd be from 1970-60 because I am sometimes finding wheat pennys that look old with the wheat design but I was shocked because a 1981 penny has a normal back but a 2009 has this Lincon background as back. I knew something was special about this penny if you guys want to see it or buy it off me let me know I have alot of other rare coins I'll be Glade to share pics of them and show them sell and trade whatever. :)
Low mintages and lots of things seem to becoming the norm for the US Mint! I think my math is correct when I try to figure out the total mintage of the S minted uncirculated quarters for the Tuskegee Airmen, in all the options I believe it's 845,940
Again thank you for the information! I have three of the coins but only one is in great shape 😕 I will save them just the same because I don’t have them. And every time I scroll down to comment, I see 1 million other videos that I need to watch from you but I just don’t have all day because I’ve got to get to the store so I can fix my dinner! Chili Verde and I need some green chilies 🌶 When I come back, I shall continue the videos as half of them look too interesting to pass! I appreciate all the tipsJ&B! Don’t know where I would be without you!!!
I just received an set and found that the pennies to be scuffed, dented and scratched in places. (Other coins as well) I can't seem to find anything on the plastic in the same spots as the damage. Since it was in a sealed box it is no fault of the seller but that means the mint sent out a less than quality product. Wonder how many other unopened boxes have poor quality coins enclosed that no one will see until the box is opened... oops too late! I guess it is just luck of the draw...
I just found myself a set of these and bought one. PCGS don't have much premiums on these Lincolns, so not worth grading. But I suppose they'll increase in value over time? Thanks JB. Another awesome video.
Buy all you can get at a decent price. There are 10 $1 President coins, 12 quarters, 2 JFK halves. So if you pay $25 for the set, there are $14 in real money you get to keep. So your real price is basically around $10. The Pennies are worth $18-$36 for all 8 and only going up. So it’s def worth it.
I'm sure you know what you're saying is all good, but I'm curious to know how exactly are you to know that those pennies are from the same metal used in 1909? How can you tell? I really appreciate your input. I'm trying to learn as much as I can because I just started collecting coins. Thanks again for the video, it was great.
I hold onto 6 extra 2009 sets for that reason, the other coins have low montages but like you said that's the extra special part. The low mintage of the 2010,11,12 quarter are under the radar also. I believe that the 2012 set has a few quarters that are extra low. Cool to see someone make that known there's a lot of people that don't realize that.
My gpa is a coin collector and he all the state quarters & he has a lot that are uncirculated. I will have to show him your video tomorrow. Just hard finding buyers . Thank you
hey im relly lost at what I found . it was covered in complete grease had no clue what kindof coin it was . I asked around and ppl told me it was junk. I started cleaning it and it turned pink. but now I can see this coin is a error. it has multiple clashes of quarters between 2005-2009.ive looked online couldnt find much . is this anything speical because to me its really cool
Funny this appeared on my RU-vid wall after getting a .999 2009 bicentennial silver penny given to me in my change after purchasing a soda at the gas station the other day.
I knew that there was a reason that I subscribed to your channel. I appreciate the heads up that you give to your fellow numismatists. This is exciting news.
Hey ok I have the same sets and glad I did listen to you thanks, but I have another fine in the Philadelphia set 2 out of the 4 president dollars have a different tone than the other 2 hmmm wonder why...
I inherited 4 rolls of the Philadelphia mint penny rolls. Never opened they have all 4 different Lincoln commemorates on them. What do you think they could be worth
I've just came into a book of pennies that start from 1945 up to 2000 I wonder if any of them are worth anything.bought it at a auction for $10.some are missing I say bout 10 but hey maybe I got a 1,000 dollar penny who knows.
I've got a couple of pennies that are about the diameter of a pencil eraser. I don't know if they are actually worth anything. I can't find any information about them but they are kind of weird.
I found a Circulated 3.2 gram 2009 presidency penny it is not cameo with the satin finish it is a standard Circualted penny. Red book says only the special edition satin finish coins weighed 3.2 grams. Your thoughts?
Not having collected any pennies since I was a kid. I have well over half a million that were in a jug for 50 years so no need to give you an Idea of the age of these pennies. Unbelievable but all this modern day ingo just shoots right over my head. The grading numbers and all that just loses me entirely. Thank God for the internet and still get lost.
I have one gorgeous im about to put it on ebay if it doesnt work out Jb i wanted to see if you could help me get rid of all my coins mainly Lincoln cents but i just added a 2004 Wisconsin quarter that had a double leaf or leaf in between both leaves
How can you tell if you have the rare penny? Do i use a magnet? I am new to this, because i have so many coins and odd currency, That i have put in my cpin jar. Not any odd coins though i have them separate. I also gave a George Washington token/ trader coin. I never see it on any sites. It's a USA coin. Any way Thank you✌
I know this is probably going to sound really weird either way but I found three different kinds of 2009 pennies and circulation that are copper they weigh 3.1 G the chances of finding a satin finish 09 copper penny that was busted out of a mint set is strange enough but finding three of them and they just look like regular pennies that's been in circulation is there a way that they can tell if the pennies are satin proof or not if they're circulated
When those 2009 pennies came out I thought they were awesome and kept every one I came across. I doubt any are nifc but that’s something I never knew about the satin ones
