Hey everyone,

You must be logged in to see this link.

Seems like some coins with an S-mint before 1975 are actually going to 3 cents each!

Curiously, is there really a good market for these? Coin dealers? Rolls? People on this forum? Would be fun to sort these by grade and save a roll each or sell for small profit.

Thanks and bye

I see the S-mint memorial cents as future key dates in the series. Once wheat pennies dry up, entry-level collectors will be scrambling for those already scarce Frisco Cents. They have the best numismatic prospects of any memorial cents so far.

im a hand sorter so ive saved back all the s mints i come across. being in the center of the country i often find more wheats than s mints per box. the 68's seem to be the rarest.

My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.

I get lots of S's in my rolls and boxes.
I'll sell mixed rolls of zink S's for $.75 if you pay shipping.
How many do you want?
I'm going to keep my Cu S's unless you make me an offer I can't refuse.

There's profit if you melt things!!

I have not been fortunate enough to find any S mint marks newer than 1974S. Hopefully, I can add this to my list of achievements some day along with the ever allusive IH found in the wild.

Continued success, everyone.

Hey cool, I would take 0.75 per roll of Cu-S-Mints. I just need to sort more before I sell, thanks.
