Hello everyone I hope you are all doing well. I am a new member to the community, and I would like to introduce myself. I am collecting LMC, Wheat pennies, and errors.
I have been researching/collecting Lincoln pennies for about a year now. I have several pennies that I am contemplating on having certified through PCGS. But I am hesitant because I am not 100% sure if they are worth the risk of paying for certification only to find out the coins are not what I thought they were. So I hoped by joining this community I might find some guidance on how to proceed with having coins authenticated. I look forward to speaking with everyone and gaining some knowledge in the coin collecting world.
