Chris, what I want to know is, how did you get them to stand up sideways like that?  Man, I have to get a life. |

I had to turn the camera sideways to fit them in the pic & still see the ruler. |

Does anyone know what the tallest single stack of cents actually is? I tried to check the Guinness Book, but, couldn't locate anything on it. Edited by chris12018

Single stack? Maybe it's here on CCF in this post. But here are two things I found that are impressive. Not single stacked but a YouTube and the other image is dimes I guess. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zrZ9VXTBNM |

 Ladies and Gentlemen, it apears we have a winner... chris12018 has won it. Chris, please email where you would like your prize sent to and I will have it in the mail on Monday. I also have a feeling you have pics of an even HIGHER stack you were keeping up your sleeve. You have any more pictures to share with the group? |

 Thanks for the contest.It was truly a challenge. I do have another pic of the same stack only it has 4 more - 149 cents. But, it didn't down load. I was hoping for 150 but, that is what caused it to fall. |

I would like to thank RFB for such a challenging contest & all the extra bonuses that he sent along. Before I start my list of Wheaties I have to tell you all how I found the "SURPRISE BONUSES". When the coins arrived I was of course very excited I was like a child on Christmas Day. Well, that's what Lisa says anyway I proceeded to open my package. I knew the wheat rolls were in there along with the Whitman books. I knew the 1909 VDB was also in there. I figured RFB would have inserted it already, so I opened the 1909 -1941 Whitman. But, no 1909 VDB. So, I set the 3 Whitman's aside and started searching rolls. When I finished searching rolls I went and took the Whitman's back off the shelf. Opened the other 2 and   to my surprise more gifts. Thanks RFB  .These surprises I will keep to myself  . Well, I've gone through the Wheaties. Separated them by decade. IHC's 1893,1897,1900,1901(readable Liberty)  ,1902,1904,1905,1907 Lincoln's 09 - 19 50ea. 20 - 29 54ea. 30 - 39 55ea. 40 - 49 167ea 50 - 58 91ea. 1909, 1909VDB (2) ,1911 (holed)  ,1964D Now how did that get there. I filled 7 holes, & upgraded 22 others. I will be posting pics of some of the coins in a day or so when I locate my camera . Thanks again RFB. Gforce thanks for the competition |
