I just curious what's the most valuable cent people here have found. I'm curious if anybody has found a VDB-S, 1914-D, flying eagle, valuable error, etc. |

"Yes i meant the doubling around the ear and chin, though i though ddo 1984 cent would suffice :)"
Sorry I wasn't more explicit  Both my 1984s were doubled ear lobe, chin and part of beard. Again, as was mentioned by another, DDO says it all! 
Have found a 2000 Wide 'AM', but evidently they are quite common and of not much value?

Mine would have to be a 1922-d penny that I on a school yard just looking up to be pick up. |

It's funny how spending a buck fifty at a coin shop just is not the same as pulling an IH. |

Cool posts everyone. Reading about finds like this is what keeps me so excited hoping I too can find something really valuable. Although a mere IH would be wonderful to find. I know, I'm just dreaming!!!
Continued success, everyone. |

I've found two of them during my hand sorting ... one had corroded, the other would probably grade AU. Sold the bad one for $50.00 and the AU for $70.00 to a coin dealer. Don't know what he will sell them for. Depending on condition, if you sell it, you should be able to get 50.00 - 150.00 (IMHO and also my not too well informed opinion )

I got a 1909 VDB from a $25 box last year.
It hasn't grown an "S" yet.
I found an over stamped '87 face with a stuck reverse last week from a CWR last week. |

yeah that 99 wide AM is tuff to find. The 92 Close AM is even tuffer. I think highroller found a 1914D if i am not mistaking. I would say my best find is a 1995 Doubled die |

By the way my most valuable found was a 1909 s in a collection of wheats I bought from my moms friend for $5. |
