    More coins from heirs dumping coins from an estate. Cents of that period were massively hoarded. Everyone was going to get rich on current issue coins. That market sank beneath the waves in May of 1964 but the holders of such coins knew a comeback was just around the corner. Unfortunately, it was a long, long way to the corner.

    All glory is fleeting.

    I should look that good. 1962 is my birth year. That one cent piece has had it easy.

    When i get stuff like this in a collection buy or acquisition i either spend it or roll it up and deposit it, there is no easy way to sell it and by the time you put it in a 2x2 and price it any profit is gone.
    I like the thought that someone may come across it and find it interesting

    They could walk for millennium and never reach that corner.

    Massive amounts yes but still it's nice to get an occasional smile
