nalaberong Pillar of the Community Canada 2805 Posts	Posted 03/23/2013 11:18 pm I got a 1909-1940 Wheat cent folder for $2. I'll be happy if I get one of everything with a mintage above 10 million in any condition. I'm filling in expensive key dates with BU 2012 Canadian pennies to avoid future disappointment, Edited by nalaberong 03/23/2013 11:24 pm Report this Post to the Staff
marcusm16a4 Valued Member United States 169 Posts	Posted 03/24/2013 6:15 pm I collect wheat cents only (avg.circ.) Have two 1909s. Report this Post to the Staff
jack jeckel Pillar of the Community United States 5208 Posts	Posted 03/24/2013 6:26 pm I am doing 1909 to date non proof. I need 15 more (not going to get a 1922 no D) Luckily 4 are common date wheats and another is a 1970 S small date which I hope to find these roll hunting. So that only leaves 10 high dollar coins and the 1910S, 1912S, and 1915S are not to outrageously expensive and the 1931 D is pretty affordable so if I really felt the need to fill some holes I could cut it down to 7 coins rather quickly and affordably.

paleoguy45 Pillar of the Community United States 2936 Posts	Posted 03/29/2013 1:26 pm I love cents - the former keystone of commerce. Started with the Lincolns and have a complete set, waiting on the 2013's. I took this "cent thing" to another level and completed a set of Indians and now am down to three holes in the Large Cent Whitman Classic (Year Set). I think those holes will remain - 1793, 1799, and 1804. It's been a blast though! Report this Post to the Staff
Luvpennys Valued Member United States 102 Posts	Posted 03/29/2013 8:53 pm Paleoguy, I'd love to see them Indians :) My IHC is still has 4 empty holes and everything is vg at best. And might stay that way for a while. So your cent collection is complete from 1805 to present? Edited by Luvpennys 03/29/2013 8:57 pm Report this Post to the Staff
SA4H Pillar of the Community United States 2764 Posts	Posted 03/30/2013 03:09 am I haven't heard/seen many members mentioning about the IHC series until now...... Almost thought I'm alone..... hahaha. @Luvpennys, which are your empty holes (1908S)? Report this Post to the Staff
paleoguy45 Pillar of the Community United States 2936 Posts	Posted 03/30/2013 12:07 pm @Luvpennies... I just finished the Indians and yes.... the Large Cents have no holes after 1804 (album-wise and coin-wise ). I DID try a Dansco set and got so frustrated with it (some of their holes don't exist!) that I took a step back and went for a year set instead. I defy someone to figure out those late thirties varieties!! Report this Post to the Staff
Luvpennys Valued Member United States 102 Posts	Posted 03/30/2013 1:19 pm Sa4h, 71,72,77 and 09s. Maybe we need to do a IHC post? As for figuring the large cents, ha! This is supposed to be fun. I just love to finish a collection. My coins are not premo. But all dimes from 1916 to present. All haves from 1916 to 63. Short 5 small ¢ from 1857 to present. Missing two Washington quarters from 32 to 98. I'm thinking of doing a Half Cent from 49 to 57 because I already have two coins. Might do them in slabs, because I have a display idea I want to build.

Luvpennys Valued Member United States 102 Posts	Posted 03/30/2013 7:18 pm Paleoguy, I know its off topic, any paleontology experience? Report this Post to the Staff
paleoguy45 Pillar of the Community United States 2936 Posts	Posted 03/31/2013 4:22 pm Lots of amateur experience that turned into coin collecting when I figured out that lugging an album of wheaties was much less stressful on the body that large rocks over the river and through the woods...
