The most extreme instance was that 1963 cent from years ago that was PR-70, Ultra Cameo. Unfortunately the coin had turned while it was in the holder and was now spotted. In my opinion it was worth $10 with a tailwind outside the holder. It didn't matter. The piece got a bid with the buyers' fee of over $40,000 at auction.
We'll use our hands and hearts and if we must we'll use our heads.
As such, I'd say matte proof lincoln cents or full head SLQs.

Raw early large cents have all over Standing Liberty quarters when it comes to selling for significant prices as raw coins. The is a very large market for them as evidenced by the inventories offered by the major dealers.

<< <i>Very high grade (PR-70 or MS-67 or better) modern coins. In the most extreme case a raw modern business strike cent might be worth $100 (generous estimate) based upon the speculation that it might grade MS-70. Once it has made MS-70 such items have brought as much as $15,000.

And there was the $15k 2003 MS70 cent that later spotted and downgraded to an $85 MS69.
