I hear people talking about i found a BU-Penny with year 1980 something. What does the BU stand for?

It might even be worth a Pretty Penny (likely not though). Most of us like shiny stuff.

I think the official term is Brilliant Uncirculated.. but the term is used commercially for just about any uncirculated coin, even those that are not all that shiny. Confusion and problems sometimes arise when each party to a transaction has a different interpretation of exactly what BU means.

On this board usually when we talk about finding a BU penny we are talking about those shiny red ones.

If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.

Now selling Copper pennies. 1.6x plus shipping. Limited amounts available.
