[otrkid70]

Just checking to see if there are any interested people in a Wheatback penny collection before i start posting pics. Missing 8 pennies. happy to post some pics if any interest.
Years 1941-1958  Very high Quality Brigh red colors  1909-1940 Various conditions  Missing 1909-s 1909-s VDB 1910-s 1912-s 1914-d 1914-s 1915-s 1931-s
If i had the missing 8 coins i would be asking about 2 BTC.  But looking for offers.

cool collection - no idea how much it's worth though.

I haven't priced it coin for coin.  just trying to get mining gear. Open to trades also.

if you really want to move these i would suggest snapping a photo of each side at very high res and creating a well organized fold on a server. im sure some coin buff on here will buy it like this to but they will just throw you some low number and thats the best offer you will get without a little more information being provided.

Just for reference:

Most of these coins look fine or extremely-fine grade. The '24d and the '11s put the value at around $80-$100 by themselves. Interesting your holder doesn't have a slot for the coveted 1922 coin with no mint-mark.

It's a pain in the ass but a great idea!  I just hate handling the coins especially the bright red ones.  Thanks

Nah, 0.4 btc is a low estimate for these coins. From what I can see at least between the 0.8 and the 1.5btc from what i can see (though it is hard to see). Like some said some HD pics would be nice indeed . If you need a quick price range you should visit your local numismatic group. Most of the time these people give you a fair estimate of the value and condition of the coins. And yes I'm a coin collector for 10 years now A good advice though do not let it go for too little. Looks like a nice collection.

before i forget do not clean the coins.. the value will drop if you do

Thanks for the input! 0.4 BTC was best offer so far but i'm glad you shed some light on the price.  I live in a small town and the coin dealers are Crooks and they know if you want to sell coins they have you in a corner.

My scanner is absolutely horrible But the again it was only like $39 lol.

No problem  But you do not need to go to coin dealers. Just a numismatic group. that are people like you and me that collect coins. Some make a business of buying certain coins in bulk and selling them at far more reasonable prices to their members. they also value your collection for free Do you have a digital camera? then you can upload your pictures. I know its a pain.. done it myself many times before.
 
maybe some of these websites can help you a bit further determining the value:

You should look up the coins because your collection could be worth more then 2btc What I just could see in my database here is that some of the coins you have here can vary from 5 dollars to 528 dollars and more. 

[Sergios]

I also suggest that you look to the prices of online shops. for example:

But condition is very important.
Sorry about posting so many messages. I'm doing 3 things at once... not a good thing to do but it has to be done hehe

Due to the huge drop in price of BTC i'm going to try and take advantage and see if i can get some Bitcoins before they rise. again.

thread is back open looking for offers.  Mtgox listed BTC at $506 at the time of this listing.

your using mtgox pirce to sell these coins?
