    Most of these minor varieties only bring 150-200% of normal price. Sometimes though they can bring more. Like my 1928-D Lincoln cent RPM#1 ANACS MS63 RB which I paid raw and unattributed for $23. Paid $30 which included shipping and insurance to ANACS. I sold it for $700. After searching diligently for almost a year, I found another that is at ANACS right now. I paid $25 for it and it maybe in just as good shape or better than the first. I have looked at a lot of 1928 Lincolns to find it. Maybe 800-1000 coins.

    Nice finds! I don't know if there's a cherrypicker that works harder than you.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
