penny

Elizabeth penny, but it looks fake, silver looks like it's flaking off. and the legend dosen't look right.

Newer at coin hunting. Not completely dumb to it, but found quite a few errors today, was needing to get some information:) it'll be much appreciated! few chips obverse and reverse and possibly a double strike mint? 1978 D penny with the mint covered up and double die possible? Seems the 8 on...

Hi Treasure Net CRHunters, First post here, which I have two purposes for writing 1) to share the recent scores from a $25 box of Lincoln cents and 2) an inquiry regarding copper bullion. I began CRHunting this year and am really enjoying it as well as the coin collecting hobby at large. Thank...

Probably not such an amazing find for some people, but I did find out that this is one of the rarer years (pre '78) which are highly sought after... It's a great find for me because I just started metal detecting recently and my oldest coin so far was a 1912 wheaty from my backyard. Also, this...

Does this coin worth more than a one cent or is it just a damage from a rolling machine? Thank you!

Hi All! so, I'm new to this site. I normally don't talk with people online, but I'm at a loss and figure other coin collectors have got to be fun people! :thumbsup: So, I came across a penny while going through my coins. now, its a wheat penny and the year says -- 19 but the 2 is upside down...

Well, after three straight weeks of searching, I finally found something worth posting! Detecting around an old house yesterday at my college, found an 1890 Indian Head penny. I almost fainted I was so excited She's not the prettiest, but she made me smile. I'll take it! Below is a intro/finds...

A few months ago I was lookin through some cents, and I found this guy. It's worn down pretty flat on both sides. It couldn't have been an ender on both sides because it doesn't look like it's scratched at all! I did the old flick test and it sounds like it's copper, so it's from either 80...

Found the 1864 Indian head that was in an old roll and was wondering if it had some kind of mint error? I can't think of any other reason this would happen. Thanks!

I found this wheat penny today the front and back are set in like a nickel but a lot more dept its color is off to it does stick to a magnet and its a 51 any help would be nice

Hello there :unhappysmiley:. I'm new to this forum; I ended up here because of my google quest to learn how to make an automatic copper penny sorter. I've tracked down this post which lead me on the right path...

I'm not really sure what type of error this is. There seems to be a shelf on the one 5 that's there. I would say greased die but I see absolutely no trace of the other number, and all the other strikes are real strong. Any ideas??? I'm going to put this up on ebay, I'm thinking of starting...

Hello all, I am new to this site and found this while wrapping coins. I don't know what D/S Wheat Pennies mean so if someone could use simple language when explaining what it is it would be super helpful! Thanks! There are 2 pictures (with questionable quality of photo taking, Sorry!)

I found this penny a few days ago and it was quite an interesting find. The reason I'm posting it here is because I wanted to know if anyone had ever found another one like it or may know if it has any kind of similarity to the Kennedy/Lincoln penny as far as who made it or what it was used to...

Hello, Hit a pounded park with the AT pro in trashy areas and I found a wheat and my oldest American coin yet. An 1822 Large Cent, this large cent is the best condition I've seen dug!! A really great dark patina, so I tried to take better pictures of that.... Somethings not right with my...

Another backyard find, a nicely toned 1994 penny.

Lakemonster and I hunted a small town elementary school on Saturday.....did fairly well. Just a few days before, Lakemonster found that 1914 German ring with the inscription (something like) "Germany fears nothing, but, God." Here is a link to a ring like he found: Objektdatenbank des...

My Dad was unwrapping a box of Garda-wrapped penny rolls yesterday and found this coin that says "Silver Circle .999 Fine Silver 1/10 Troy Ounce" from the Golden State Mint in the middle of a roll. I thought this was a cool find -- probably worth at least $3.

From the last box of pennies I searched, I got: 1921 KG V in ugly green stuff (mentioned in the last post) 1926 S penny (4,55 millions mintage) Can anyone guess the approximate grade. Blank penny planchet (looks legitimate, on the edge picture 1) 1971 Proof 2) Blank 3) 1971S 4) BU 1980 penny...

Worldtalker posted a find on Apr 2 his awesome find of a 1916 Brit Penny. Thanks and WTG Worldtalker!! Yesterday I posted a find of a 1905 Brit Penny, however, I am wondering why the profile of King Edward the VII was reversed sometime between 1905 and 1916? Does anyone have the answer to...
