my cent collection

[stlouiscoin]

I am currently working on collecting every circulation cent ever minted, and thought it would be cool to keep a journal of it on here.
Lincoln cents:
all except 09-s, 09-s vdb,
Indian head cents:
All except 1861, 67-72 and 76-78, 08-s, 09-s
Flying eagle:
no 1856.
Large cents:
easier to say what I do have...:1798, 1817, 18, 20, 22, 28, 30, 35, 37-39, 46, 48 50-52, 55
all the coins range from cull to proof.

Please feel free to comment on the coin and my attemp.

Very nice and way to go. I wish you all the luck but would like to add that the 1856 Flying Eagle was a pattern coin so I wouldn't get too worked up trying to find one. There were only 2,500 minted and worth several thousand dollars. To me, it is akin to collecting silver dollars and trying to find the 1836 Gobrecht. It can be done but cost a lot of money. Good luck.

Not sure you mean EVERY. That would mean all the Large Cents, Flying Eagles, Indian Heads too. Lots of money if you try those too.

[stlouiscoin]

nope. I mean EVERY. Hundreds of thousands of dollars... maybe my sorting profit can take a dent out of it

[Sheba]

Wow! Impressive goal. Best wishes in getting it done. I would think a collection like that would be worth a lot of silver or gold
