I had been slowly finding good deals on ebay for BU wheats, but it's been taking me quite a while because those deals are far and few between. I saw these at a dollar a piece and thought this would be a great chance to get a huge portion of my later date wheats looking good. I guess throwing in the yard sale part threw everyone off considering a lot of yard sale finds are a real steal and with everyone starting to reply with really low guesses, I was beginning to think I had the wrong prices in my head! Thanks everyone.

Great score! I've been to quite a few yard sales this summer and so far not one has had coins of any kind.

I think that's an awesome deal, I actually got almost all my 1940-1956 pennies in UNC, most not BU, for $1 a piece. Fantastic deal, and those small dates are pretty darn nice.

Great buy! I'm jealous.

Just one more reason I love yard/garage/estate sales. You just never know.

Nice find! Gotta love tag/yard/garage sales! I think a dollar each sounds like a decent deal. As said they sell for at least that on ebay, and taking into account you got them all in one shot definitely not too shabby at all!!

I actually had a great tag sale day today as well.. It can be read about here:

I got 4 MS 1964 Kennedy's and a circulated Mercury dime for $30... A bit under spot, and the halfs were MS so pretty good indeed. Photos in the link above.

I would say a buck each is a good deal too. I think I paid an average of $2.00 each for my BU cents of the same dates. The 1960 small date was even more, so I think you did good!

Yeah that's not bad at all in my opinion, I feel like you'd pay a lot more buying them individually...

$1 a piece!? That's a great deal for sure! I've been struggling to find ANY BU wheatie from 1935 to 1958 for less than $4 a piece on ebay or at the two LCS I go to. Good grab!
