Not sure if data is collected for errors or if I'm posting this in the right spot but I found a 1999 WAM today. I've only been sorting pennies for a couple months now so I'm pretty excited about this.

GREAT FIND...but a better looking coin would have you looking to get a whole lot of coin for it!

3/2010 Shield Pennies (all P mintmark)



Enjoy your coin searches, everyone.

Have you found any 1999 Wide AM's or the 1992 and 1992d close AM's ?
I also check for the AM's along with the 1984 and 97 double ear and the 1995 double LIBERTY.
Should I be saving the 2010 Shields ? I find about 100 to 200 ( P mint mark) in every box and send them back to the wild. I keep the D mintmarks because I only find 1 in about every 2 boxes. On one of my box pickups they gave me 2 full $25 String boxs of Shields ( P mintmark) I kept 1 box and sent the other back to the wild. I do keep all the LP1, LP2, LP3, and LP4's

Yes, I have found one 1999 Wide AM, BUT it wasn't from roll searching. I actually received it in change. I have seen and held a graded 1992 or 1992D Close AM that was found close to my area by a coin roll hunter.

I only save the 2010 Shields because they are still pretty rare for me to find in rolls and I am somewhat quirky. As you can see, the last search only netted me three of the 2010 pennies in an $11.00 search. Who knows what the future will bring and since this was a year for a new design, one never knows the value down the road.

I check ever coin that passes through my fingers to the best of my abilities with my vision problems, etc.

Enjoy your coin searches, everyone.
