What Is the Value of Uncirculated Coins?
Coins found in uncirculated condition are very rare and can be extremely valuable, especially for older issues. It varies from issue to issue, but in general uncirculated coins must have very good luster and practically no wear on the coin. U.S. coins prior to the 19th century are nearly impossible to find in such condition, so the focus here will be on the issues of the last two centuries, from the large cents of the early 19th century to the modern coins of recent years.
