Most of the days, cents are the least valuable coins in your portfolio. But if you stumble through the good, it could earn you thousands. The 1009 Lincoln wheat with an initial V.D.B is such a cent. "The variety of this room has had a very low production," saysRob Eisenstein ofThe collector's store Cardboard and coins. "In addition, this rare variety has the initials of the Design Creator of Lincoln, V.DB., unlike the room below."

To identify the coin, start by looking for the year 1909. Then look for the letter "S" under the year. Finally, see if you can locate the initials v.d.b at the bottom of the tail. If you can, you may be sitting on a silver stack.

Do not believe you will find one? Think again. Despite the relatively small currency of this coin, there was still 484,000 created, according toParts collection site USA corner book. Centimes are worth $ 940 on average and $ 2,000 and more for coins in the new state.

Yes, there is more than one type of precious penny. The 1955 tail of Lincoln Bheats, Obverse Penny Doubled is worth about $ 800 in average condition and $ 4,000 -more menthe.

So, what makes this coin? "There was a mint error, the resulting pieces displaying what looks like a 1955 on a 1955," says Eisenstein. "The date - among other features located at the front and upright - is apparently doubled." Indeed, the penny looks like you look at it with a double vision. This interesting fault is very valuable for collectors.

If you are not blessed with the good fortune to find a penny that is worth a big, do not worry. There are many common pieces that have more value than you might think. "Circulated, or worn, of the ten centimes of money, quarters and half-dollars of 90%, which were manufactured from 1964 and earlier, is currently worth more than 20 times the nominal value," saysMichael Fuljenz, a member of theNon-profit organisation Professional guild numismatists.AE0FCC31AE342FD3A1346EBB1F342FCB

Fuljenz notes that a half-dollar of money is worth at least $ 10, while a 1965 penny is worth at least $ 2. "Silver dollars made from 1935 or earlier often are at least $ 30 or more depending on their condition and date of issue," said Fuljenz. "Rare and Mintermark Dand Silver Date in excellent condition can be worth hundreds and even thousands of dollars. But even commute dollars are valuable because money has increased by about $ 25 an ounce, and there is a value collector. "

Let's say you eliminate your handbag of change and think you may have stumbled on a valuable coin. Now what? First, "do not clean the room," saysGive Pearlman, an affiliate member of the guild of professional numsmatists. "Inappropriate, hard and abrasive cleaning can seriously damage a coin and significantly reduce any collector value it may have."

You will also want to evaluate its quality. "If the room always has its original mint chandelier, manage it only on the edge," explains Pearlman. "Do not put the fingerprints at the front or at the back, because these brands can also reduce any Collector value. "

Then look for the method by which you would like most to manage your coin. For example, you can keep it, bring it to a rare dealer of coin or for sale at auction. Whatever you do, it will bring a whole new meaning to the term "pretty penny".
