Quick update
The only Wheat that I have not found is a 1922, I have a complete list of every other year. Most years I have a "D" or an "S", Except for 1909. Multiple 1917 and 1936. My eyes are pretty shot right now. I have over 70 1917,1918,1919 combined, 1910and 1911's are coming in at about 25 combined. I still have another tub to go through. I'll be back with another update later.

you could try extremely diluted nickadate it will take it off but if you put to much on it will start to discolor the coin.

Only problem is .......often even reletives think that the coins they have are worth a lot of money.....and when they find out otherwise....they're either suspicious or decide they continue to hang on to them until they ARE worth a fortune !!...(most cases..never!)

The thing that I'm still miffed about is that the coins were all taken to an out of business dealer, He left all his cards in the bags. I can't help but think of all the coins that he pocketed when searching. I find it odd that I have almost every year and mintmark for the wheaties, Except for the key dates. I looked for the dealer, and he is gone, they were searched about 15 years ago. I am hoping that he was older and had poor eyesight, maybe I can still find some RPM's kicking around. There are just so many pennies, I don't have the time to sit and check every single one, at one time, and my work schedule isn't helping things out either.
