LOL
One thing that has been quite unusual, I've only found TWO wheat cents so far! No matter, I'll take the BU Zincolns over the average wheats I do usually find. For example, I'm finding 1986-D's and the BU roll price on CDN is $27...that comes to $0.54 each. I only get 2.5 cents for a common wheat. I nabbed almost a full roll of 86-D's so far. :)

Just curious Bad Thad.
You've posted a lot of links about how "valuable" BU, high-end memorial cents are.
Has this changed your mind at all?
After all, there are probably hundreds and hundreds of these stashes across the good 'ole USA. That's the big problem with all the recent coinage. Billions and billions.

Absolutely not. While I'm sure there's plenty of "stashes", that doesn't mean they were stored properly, their quaility is high, and that they won't just end up back in circulation. Most of the BU's I'm pulling out have the same problems of mid to late die state, poor strikes, spots and generally poor quality.

I would also be interested in any BU cents, nickels and dimes and any halves he may have. Hard to find the 80's and 90's cents in any good condition these days in change. Same really kind of goes for the nickels.

WHEW! The cents are KILLING me to get through. I have mega-hours racked up and I'm less than 25% finished. This is going to take me a long, long time to finish. One great thing so far, I've upgraded my Zincoln BU roll set to almost all gem level coins and completed some tough years that I was struggling with. My 1982 to 1989 roll coins are the absolute BOMB now. I also completed an extra roll of 1986-D that are at least MS-63 and up. These have a CDN ask of $27!

BadThad,
I would be VERY interested in that roll of 86-D and any most other 80's rolls you have extra of.
