    I'd have to hunt for a bank which would take them back...

    Watch for the '88-P with the reverse rotated.

    Watch for the '65 with the Franklin Bust instead of the Kennedy Bust, and watch for the '79 Proof with the Walking Liberty Obverse.

    If you can stand to look closely at every 1974, you a better man than I! image

    There are very nice DDOs on the 1971-D, 1972, 1973-D, and 1977-D that are very much worth looking for.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    Atarian,

    You might look for any of the coins pictured below. They are but a few of the many. image

    It's possible you could find some '87s but don't hold your breath. That's one of the years that was only issued in mint and proof sets. image

    this is a half you should really be hunting for and even if you do not find one you will learn much in your pursute



    but it will not be found at the bank


    1878-s

    With any denomination you should also be watching for gems. These will almost invariably
    be from the current year up to a couple years back depending on the flow of coin through
    the fed. These show up and have always been worth saving.
