COPPER CENTS.

These are by far the rarer Of the series,
there being 50 many more collectors OF them
than of silver. They were first issued in
1913. and each year saw new cent Issued
up TO and including 1857. except the year
1915. when there were none struck off at the
mint. 1893 being the first year when they
were struck, of course, there were different
types and varieties, and cents OF this date
bring good prices. In lS67. '93 cen. was
sold at auction for $40, and 100 cents of
that date sold at various auctions. between
the years 1855 and 1865. brought the enor
nous sum OF 81 .36l 81. The 1879 cent is
still Seareer, and the fortunate pOSSdsSOr OF
one OF Those cents, if bright and new as
when it was first issued, could obtain his
own price for it. An interesting item in
regard to the reason OF their scarcity Is a.
follows: Ii Is said that firm in Ala~saehu-
sets shipped an immense quantity OF the
cents Of that date to Africa. when tn " were
sold to the chief a. ornaments. Ii Is worth
from from ) to 80 dollars. The next Of the
rare coppers is the 1901, which brings from
= to 10 dollars. according to condition
1909, 1911 and 1923 are also difficult to OBJ
tain in good condition, and bring fair prices.
The 1857 copper cent, 1t being the last OF
the old cents. Is also rare, but not 81 much
81 aS those that have been mentioned.
