Title: 1982 1c
Post by: trout on April 23, 2015, 01:39:48 PM
I opened up a 1982 Mint roll of 1 cent coins I got from Numisbid.
They are all fully Red .
I rather like this one.
Will it make MS66 or better?

66 is fairly easy for the one cent coins, a great number of 1c coins from RAM rolls tend to make 66 or better.

Even the "Enders" on that roll would make 64 easy.

Looking at the Bluesheet valuations the 1982 coins seem to be tougher to get in MS66 and better compared most of the other years.
Is there a reason for this Walter ?

Coins within individual rolls tend to be of similar condition, sometimes you get good rolls, sometimes you get bad rolls. It's possible that the few rolls that have been sent of 1982 cent coins were poorer than average rolls. I haven't opened any 1982 cent rolls so I can't comment if this is an overall trend of the year or if this is just a statistical anomaly due to the few rolls which have been opened for PCGS grading so far.

Thanks Walter.
I have selected half a dozen of these from the roll and will be sending them off to PCGS with one of my "Modern" submissions shortly.
It will be interesting to see how they fare :ok:
