ChildOfTheWheat Pillar of the Community United States 5828 Posts	Posted 03/16/2015 10:09 am Hello! I CRH atleast $100 worth of cents a month, and I was wondering if I should keep all of these "woody" errors. I know they are a type of error, formed when the alloys dont mix right. Per box, i'd say on a good say I find 5-10 woodies, and of them a good 1-2 wheat woodies. So, should I keep all of the LMC woodies? Should I also seperate the LWC woodies from the other wheat cents? Any help would be apreciated! Report this Post to the Staff

I thought about putting together a roll and try selling them like that.I sold a Wheatie that was a woody to a fellow CCF member a long time ago for something like $3 to $5.
