Description: 1974 was a year of experimentation that many novice collectors never learned about until many years later. Copper was getting more expensive, so the Mint decided to test new materials for making cents. The worked with aluminum, but ultimately decided not to change the composition of the cent. One thing that did change, however, was a hub design change that wasn't even known until years later. This hub design change produced two different date sizes for all three mints for 1974, making six different possible business strike issues. This is one of those issues. You need one of these for a GEM Memorial set, and this one comes at a very reasonable price for a tough coin! This item is a general stock item, meaning we stock a quantity of these items that all have very similar appearance. For that reason, the images you see of this item are representative of the quality of coin you will receive, but is NOT the actual coin you will receive when ordering this item. Payments We accept PayPal payment only from verified users with verified addresses. We will not ship to unverified addresses.

Regarding shipping and rates's shipping calculator DOES NOT allow for calculations based on flat rate priority shipping, so if your order includes rolls of coins (or anything that has a combined weight of more than 15 ounces), PLEASE select your items then ASK FOR AN INVOICE for me to give you the proper shipping charge for your items. I can ship TWO rolls for First Class Rate of $3.50 - I can ship from 3 to 20 rolls for a Small Flat Rate Priority box rate of $7.75 - and I can ship from 21 to 100 rolls for a Medium Flat Rate Priority box rate of $14.50. This price includes packaging labor and materials, and is slightly above the average exact postal rates for that reason.
