    Are there any Lincoln cent collectors from outside USA and Canada?

    I was just wondering if there are any Lincoln cent collectors here in LCR from outside USA and Canada?
    If there are would anyone please tell me from where do you get your Lincoln cents? As i live in Egypt and it is not that easy to get what i am looking for so i would like to know how other collectors who live in other countries other than US and Canada add to their collection of cents?

    Thanks

    P.S. I was never good at geography

    I think I accidentally overdosed on some of Bob's eggnog this morning...

        Knowing the right people I'm sure you could get your coins from anywhere they would just have to be willing to ship internationally.

            You've been a regular so long I had forgotten you live in Egypt. I would think if you went to what we call a flea market so should be able to find small accumulations of foriegn coins "U.S." cents as tourists leave behind coins as tips or payments.
            Good Luck.

                Best would be to find a friend or so near a military base, as they get mail at Domestic prices. I used to ship stuff from Korea to the mainland for $5 or so.

                  Celatru is from jamaca or one of those islands. I should remember because I sent him coins. Maybe Dominica republic.

                      Welcome to LCR. England, eh? I guess that means you get to say "penny" without getting lambasted.

                              That's a great coin!!!!! I sell on line and always welcome worldwide buyers, I used to live in Mexico, but very close to the border with USA so I never really had that of a big problem to get lincolns locally. I don't know what are you looking for exactly (dates, errors, etc) but I do have some extra-wheats mostly 40's & 50's in very good shape that I don't really use (I check them for errors already) so if you are interested I can send them to you, no sell them, just send them, as long as you cover the post fee, I beleive a Flat rate envelope goes around 13 dollars, ships worldwide and can hold a lot, I have sent up to 2 pounds of wheats in those envelopes, let me know if that could be of help. Great to meet someone from Egipt!
