I really appreciate everybody's time in posting the comments , I just decided that I won't buy those unsearched bags of wheats .
I respect the members from this community cause I'm sure they have knowledge in teaching the new collectors like myself , thanks for helping me in save my money and maybe I will invest in some good silvers...

I fell for unsearched lots a few times when I started out. As others have said 90% of them will be 40s and 50s. I did buy one unsearched lot where I got like 8 1909-p and 3 1909-p vbds along with quite a few other less common dates (still no key dates). That seller specifically stated the lot was almost all pre 40s and I think I was just in the right place at the right time. I think you're doing the right thing by putting that money toward some good silvers. Let us know what u end up picking out. Good luck!

It's not possible to separate wheat from memorial pennies without searching them. No one is going to put a 1909-S into a lot except to salt it for the unwitting buyer.

There are exceptions, of course, but they just prove the rule.

very nice post nss52! Thank you Very much for the smart warnings from all members
I completely understood and ended up last night buying some Silver Ikes , really enjoy those huge coins
I paid for 4 coins 1971-72-73-74 sealed from mint place $40 shipping free .
I will post pics when it arrives probably Wednesday ... I still have money left from my "fun budget" to spend and thinking what to buy next , probably more silvers
Good luck !!

I agree with many posters about how they could be unsearched. How do they are all Wheat if unsearched? I think just a come one to buy.
