2019 W Lincoln Cent Collectible Coin

2019 W Lincoln Cent Special Edition Proof Coin

A 2019 w Lincoln cent special edition proof coin is unlikely to be found in circulation. W mint mark pennies were unique collectible coins made available in 2019 mint sets. For example, like the rare 2000 Native American Dollar in Cheerios cereal boxes.

Furthermore, 2019 W Lincoln cent proofs are registry coins. However, “the U.S. Mint made a mistake and sold ninety one West Point Mint pennies individually.” – coinworld.com

Moreover, if you come across a 2019-w penny, observe and examine it for errors and varieties. West Point Mint collectible shield cents are already rare, but being an error or variety makes a coin even more scarce.

Furthermore, only 629,342 w proof Lincoln shield cents were produced. This makes them extremely rare coins, belonging to less than a million collectors. In other words, do not underestimate value potential.

2019 W Lincoln Cent Proofs Display Mirror-like Fields

Furthermore, the mint made history by striking the first Lincoln cents bearing the w mint mark. Moreover, w pennies raked in nice profits in the marketplace. For instance, “coin dealers started selling each of the three 2019 W Lincoln cents for up to $25.00 each” – coinnews.net

2019 W Shield Cent Values

Furthermore, values of 2019-w cents depend on the condition of each coin. The lowest population of the highest mint state grades are the most valuable. Moreover, this refers to professionally graded encapsulated coins. In other words, the most pristine pennies are the most valuable.

For instance, a 2019-W 1C Shield Cent, graded MS70 RD, sold for $3,606.00. Furthermore, a 2019-W 1C Shield, DCAM (Proof) graded PR70DCAM, sold for $467.00. Additionally, a 2019-W 1C Shield – Reverse Proof First Strike (Proof) graded PR70 RD, sold for $300.00.

Rare 2019 Pennies

Again, it’s highly unlikely to find a special edition w proof coin in circulation. However, it’s not impossible. People unaware of the numismatic value of coins unwittingly spend them. That’s why it’s important to pay attention to pocket change.

If you do find a 2019-w Lincoln cent, then look closely for errors and varieties. 2019 w pennies in raw condition are available to bid on and/or purchased directly from coin dealers online. For instance, keep an eye open for listings on Ebay.

1996 Quarter Errors, Varieties, & Values

1996 Quarter errors and varieties exist! For instance, observe the doubling displayed behind Washington’s ear noted with an arrow in the image below. This is a rare quarter worth money!

Furthermore, no other 1996 doubled die quarter listings are available as of yet. Therefore, if you find one like this, hold on to it! In other words, it’s an unknown discovery. These are the types of quarters worth money.

Doubled Die Variety Quarters

Furthermore, according to Wexler’s Coins & Die Varieties, “Because of the manner in which the dies receive doubled images through the hubbing process, it’s important to realize that the doubling seen on doubled dies will appear as raised and rounded.

Moreover, the secondary images look just like the normal devices on the coin. In other words, a machine doubled coin will be flat instead of raised, as shown in the image below.

“Furthermore, doubled letters will often show “splits” in the serifs of the letters whenever the letters have serifs. Additionally, if the letters have squared off corners, then those corners will often show strong “notches.”

“Moreover, the “spread” refers to the separation between the doubled design. Most importantly, the spread of the doubling varies and may be very wide or extremely close.” A magnifying loupe is necessary to see most doubled die coins.

Furthermore, it’s possible for a coin to be a genuine doubled die that displays machine doubling. Learning the difference can be challenging for new collectors. For this reason, online coin communities and groups are great for getting more than one opinion.

Observe the die crack that displays between the left wing of the eagle and the letters “E” & “D” of “UNITED.” The best chance of finding rare 1996 error or variety quarters in flawless condition is to search through uncirculated original wrapped bank rolls.

For instance, a 1996 P 25C Washington quarter graded MS60, sold for $6,900.00. Furthermore, a 1996 D 25C Washington quarter dollar graded MS68, sold for $447.00. Those quarters are valuable because of their pristine condition.

Key Dates are a Big Deal

“The 1982 and 1983 quarters are most famous for below-average appearance and are the Washington quarters you want to check your change for.” No mint sets were issued during those two years. Furthermore, quarters of these dates look battered after a short time in circulation. Therefore, finding one in mint state condition will fetch a very nice premium.
