well I know it's worth at least 1 cent. If it's copper, a little more than 1 cent.

You don't have to be the BEST you just have to be.......SLICK

looks like a pretty good sized cud, should be worth $5-$10 I would think.

The coin doesn't look to be in that great condition, or it could be the lighting. I'm sure you could sell it for 1-5 dollars. 10 may be asking a little much but you just might get lucky.

Selling Copper cents. $0 FV available at 1.4xFV. Also interested in trading for wheat pennies and other coins Please pm me for requests or inquiries.

Penny doesn't look like a cud. I think it's copper though. Nickel looks to be an excellent error strike, worth several dollars.

The 1982 Lincoln has a partial brockage, and I would guess that it is worth somewhere in the $5.00-$10.00 range. A cud will have raised metal, not incuse like the coin in the picture.

Can you post a picture of the reverse of the 1982?

Here is a link to a similar coin dated 1935.

The Nickel appears to have the impression of the reverse of a Lincoln Cent. This can be done easily by squeezing the coins in a vise. Therefore, I doubt it is an error, and it has no numismatic value.

Here is a picture of the reverse, i cant believe that wheat went for that much, i agree with you on the nickel it does look like a penny was pressed up against it. thanks for the info.

Your 1982 definitely is a partial brockage. It was a decent find.

That 1935 did not sell.

$99.99 is a bit steep for one in MS-62. Since yours is circulated it probably is worth no more than $10.00.
