1954 s AU condition(Shiney)

[Voyager17]

Please,kindly disregard the MINT part(uptop),since I am very New to Collecting Lincoln cents I just learned that MS stands for MINT coins states,PR Stands for Proof coins states and AU for circulated coins.I should have used AU...

Dear Friends:tinysmile_twink_t2:,I wanted to try to SELL the (1954s),(1919:tinysmile_fever_t: RED)(1937)(1918) and all the coins with it on this POST except the TWO-Eyed-Lincoln Penny. But, I can't upload the Pic here, since I uploaded to a POST already.:crossedlips::(
The Pics are on my Post " A Wonderfull Saturdays Treasure Hunt Pictures".Please,kindly make your Best Offer. God Bless America!

Im just curious but what is your asking price?

[cimperialis]

Beck, when you call a coin RED, that means the coin is in mint state, and the color of the copper is still RED. Your 1919 cent shows a little bit of red color, but that's only because of environmental or circulation causes. It's not a RED mint state coin.

Your getting alot of good advice. Fro what I'm reading you have never collected coins and are trying to be experienced in a day. You must read about the basics of collecting first. Basic books and articles about coin collecting in general. You need to know the basics before you start posting away like your a old-timer. Time takes time. I know how you feel but before you can be a surgeon you must go to med school and be trained. What you will find is that people will start to ignore you. Read up and ask for advice but count to ten before you post.

Thats not true Roger..Im sure I could do heart surgery..lol..doesnt look that hard at all..jk:LOL_Hair:

[liveandievarieties]

Beck- I'm not a buyer, but I am definitely curious- why would you flat out state that you won't sell to a dealer? I've seen this before and always been curious. Hoping to understand-

[Voyager17]

Friends,I am too new to all this....its True I really LOVE searching (Treasure Hunting) daily! But,there is a LOT of Information to BE
learned....and I'm not going to learn in a day..or week,or month, perhaps longer...and practice makes perfect.I truley have no idea about the asking price part,all these Websites show different figures? And can be very confusing at Time...God Bless!

[Voyager17]

Friends,I thank for all your Advise...I have been in this coin collecting only for around 6-9months...RED,I (thought) coins Turned RED,Brown,or REDBrown...after the Shiney intial coating...mine is very RED incomparison to coins showed on listing via E-bay etc even the coins I looked at the Goldberg exchange were darkish and Browenish not Reddish like mine ....so I said RED!Friends,I am counting on your Support as Friends...God Bless!

[Voyager17]

Roger...Friend,thanks for your reply.Yes,I need to slow down a bit,your are abosultley right.Its...true..I do find a lot of COOL stuff..Perhaps LUCKY (Thank God).Can I Possibley double check my FINDS with you before I POST?.It would make me feel a bit more comfortable, as well.I know what you are saying...WE are LIVE here,and no time for mistakes,agreed.Should I just POST the pictures and let the Experts here decide what they are? Example: I just found a 1990 Penny.I was looking at the LCR list of no S 1990 Pennys,and I looked mine.I began to read ALLEXPERTS online remarks with Charles D (Chucks) to other people about PROOF coins of 1990 etc and another expert called PAPAJACK on About.com and they said that a PROOF of the 1990 is a special coin,its hard to mix it with a normal 1990 coin since its (Copper Coated),I also learned that Proof coins are usually HIT 2-3 times for more Detail(my last post I found a 1998 with immaculate deep detail,but no S mintmark).
Back to what I was saying, about the 1990.My 1990 is also Copper Coated,even the RIMS,1990,E-Plubrus,Linclons Image,and like a Cameo appearanc,ofcourse circulated conditon and NO S) From just a 2feet away distance it almost looks like a old copper penny.Friend,from little knowlege I have....I found a 1990 No S mint mark Penny...again that my theory...God Bless!

[Maineman750]

Voyager17, yes,please post quality pictures of your finds and let us verify what it is before too much speculation.You will gain much knowledge this way and also some respect at the same time.

[RWBILLER]

I agree and post and explain what you think it is and why.
Roger

[liveandievarieties]

Friend,from little knowlege I have....I found a 1990 No S mint mark Penny...again that my theory...God Bless!

Yes, yes indeed!
If only you would purchase a "Redbook" it would answer ALL of your questions on this subject and save you much embarrassment. The answer is painfully simple, but I haven't seen a forum member offer up the basic explanation. I'll respect that and enjoy this.

I know I said I was going to ignore, but this is like a car-wreck, I just can't look away.

[cimperialis]

Voyager- here is a list of books that I purchased cheaply from Amazon that got me started. This is not a complete list of books you should read, but rather a sampling.

The "red book"- http://www.amazon.com/Guide-Book-United-States-Coins/dp/0794831486/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1323103702&sr=8-4

Looking Through Lincoln Cents- http://www.amazon.com/Looking-Through-Lincoln-Cents-Chronology/dp/0974237140/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1323103745&sr=1-1

Cherrypicker's guide- http://www.amazon.com/Cherrypickers-Guide-Bill-Fivas/dp/0794822851/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1323103781&sr=1-2

Strike it Rich with Pocket Change- http://www.amazon.com/Strike-Rich-Pocket-Change-Potter/dp/0896899411/ref=tmm_pap_title_1


If you're serious about joining this hobby and the forum, you'll need to buy at least some of these. There's no website that can substitute the knowledge in these books. Best of luck.

[Voyager17]

Friend,at the moment I can't afford that...due to lots of Americans are unemployed,including me!God Bless.

[Voyager17]

Friends,at the moment that not possible...due to a lot of Americans are unemployed,me too! God Bless! But thanks a million for your advise I do visit the Lincolncentresource DAILY....there is a Whole lot a advise in the Beginners area I JUST FOUND with pictures to compare.God Bless!

[Voyager17]

Dear Friend,I added a header to my Post above,just to clear it up a bit and will do the same to the POST I created on 1998 Penny.
Its true I got overly excited when I saw the 1998 Penny.Well.....not everyday one sees a un-oxidized,unscrated,penny from 14 years ago roll out of a penny roll.All I can say what I will say in correction to my 1998 Post is that..it must have been kept in a air-tight enviorment and untouched.I say it again,I will from now on (expect just posting the pictures of my previous POST awaiting pictures,DOUBLE CHECK, with a SENIOR MEMEBER like yourself before creating a NEW POST.God Bless!

[thecentcollector]

Perhaps dealing in money is not the best hobby for someone that's (unfortunately) unemployed?

As with any hobby/business, it costs money to make money. Just my two cents. I'm done.

[Voyager17]

Friend,but my investment is my time and a few Pennys....God Bless!

[cimperialis]

Voyager, please notice that you continue to not take the advice of multiple members of the forum. 1) you still post multiple times in a row (posts 14-16 on this thread) and 2) your posts are riddled with grammatical and spelling errors. For example: The plural of penny is "pennies." It's spelled "unscratched," not "unscrated." You might proofread your posts. This will cause people to take you more seriously.

[Voyager17]

Thank you.God Bless!

[mustbebob]

Good Grief...:squigglemouth:

Sorry to say, and I hope this guy gets back on track with work and everything, but I thought I asked and showed a bunch of stuff in the beginning with little or no clue. Feel much better now.

[coppercoins]

Voyager - I'll give you 25 cents for the coins you listed...but you have to pay shipping. Deal?

Oh...never mind, I'm what you would call a dealer - I buy at realistic prices.

PS:The coins are worth far more to me for Sentimental value.If I'd known they are worth only 2-5 cents a piece I'd never posted.
