Odd box of Lincolns....

Postby socaldsal » Sun Sep 12, 2010 12:45 am

I went to my bank to get some cents to search through. Once I got home my box was nothing but the new 2010 cents. Kind bummed because I realized that I ain't gonna get in to any sorting fun. Then I realized people collect 'em, so does anyone know what premiums come from an unopened bank box? Any replies help, even if you say $25 :lol: At least then I'd know.

Check eBay ended autions to get the best idea on what they may bring.

I think you can get 30-40 out of an unopened box of shields. Not sure about the per roll price.

I've been selling mine for face value just to get rid of them.

Well that settles that then I guess, off to the gas station and McDonald's they go! :lol: Ahh double cheeseburgers, the modern soup line.

I won't spend them or cash them back in anywhere near my home town. I don't want to see them again in future rolls that I search, that's why I sell them at face value to people out west :lol:

That's why I was wondering why some people were paying almost x2 face online when I first saw them here. My first thought was, "Why? I get them all the time out here!" Ah well, I guess I missed the boat on the numi side. On a side note I never thought I'd see a gas station attendant ever thank me for paying in all pennies. She said she was out of change. :)
