Why keep the 2009 pennies?

Why keep the 2009 pennies?

Personal preference I guess. I think they will be valuable some day. Just think, out of 7500 cents, I found only 19. You would think that, "how can they be rare, there only 3 years old". But the numbers don't lie.

Yeah, interesting. I just checked the total mintage numbers, and they only minted 2.35 bill of the 2009 lincolns .. and that's spread over 4 styles, and 2 different mints. Full sets could ultimately be worth something.

Hey, do you check for errors pennies too?

If its not a blatant error, then I don't check. I date check all of them, but if i looked for double dies, etc then it would take me forever. 3 boxes took me about 2 days, searching bunches of 5 rolls or so.
