I do believe that 1961 penny is MS-67 grade.

Sorry, although I do have backside photos of these pennies, I don't know how to share multiple photos on Lemmy.

Mods, I do hope this is an acceptable post. Please let me know if not..

Middle penny appears to me MS-67 grade, which basically means it's hardly been in circulation, and barely has any wear on it.

Hell, even the back side of the middle penny still has rigid steps on it. According to my research, it's worth more dollars than I would have expected.

That's actually interesting. I probably have some low circulation coins in my coin jar. How much are they worth?

I am most definitely not an expert, I've just collected what's crossed my way over the ~~years~~ decades..

Though I'm no expert, I'm not coin stupid either.

You flick the coin fast enough, if it's a good coin, it'll ring..

Well now I'm even more interested in pennies...
