1). Collecting Lincoln Cents
You can still find the occasional mint errors, mint mark varieties, and relatively scarce modern dates such as the 1969P, 1974S, and 1960D Small Date. However, in today's world one can't expect to complete one-third of a Lincoln Cent Collection by finding them in circulation. Thus, the collector has to turn to the coin dealer for his Lincoln Cents, who in turn is always buying them from other collectors who put them away years ago.
2). What is the Difference Between a Coin's Price and its Value?
Price and Value are Not the Same Thing
There is a big difference between the price of a coin, and the value of a coin. Although you often see these words used interchangeably, it is important that you understand the different concepts represented by each.
The "Price" of a Coin is How Much it Would Cost You to Buy it From a Dealer
This is pretty straightforward.
