Great find, Necer149! Full red wheats are pretty hard to find, I only have a couple from circulation.

Here are the pics. The Wheat cent is actually a red brown although the pic is showing it as brown. One of the cents is the one that is off center. The top of some of the letters are missing. The third cent is a 2000. Is it a Wide AM?  Thanks. |

Fastgc - looks like it might be a 2000 WAM. A close-up picture would confirm but I think you found one. Nice! John - would love to see your finds...plastic film and all. |

One of the cents is the one that is off center. Appears to be a MAD (Mis-Aligned Die) and not off center. These are quite common and generally not worth saving unless some of the devices are missing. Lincoln Cent Lover!VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/

Rackster, Thanks. I compared it to a regular 2000 cent; the one in the pic is a wide am     . I couldn't believe that I found a Wide AM in only 12 rolls  . Seems like my area has lots of errors and varieties  . |

Went through a bag from my banks coin counter ($50) that I got last Thursday. I was mainly looking for recent Canadian cents as I need about 15 recent ones to add to a set I last looked at 20 years ago. Did find about 15 Canadian cents but only one I needed (2000). There was also $13.67 in copper cents as well as 26 wheat cents. The best of the wheat's was a 1947 that has to be at least AU. Old school here and no camera to take a photo,

Went through a box today.. 14 wheats all in 50's besides a 1918. I really like this 1947 Canadian penny. I'm not an error guy, can anyone tell me about this one? 0 looks like it has shape of a 7 or it could be a 7 that looks like a 0  |

Thanks Rackster. Sorry about the bad pics. It's easy to see the doubled ear but not so easy to see the DDO on the 1983.FWIW,the 83 looks to be an EDS while the one on CC's site is a MDS. John1 |

Nice to find an LWC S mint Chris! John - I get lazy; seal up a coin in a flip before pics but wish I had. I worry more about scratching it with a staple taking it out, so I catch the dust and glare on pics post-facto. Oh well.  I've found a few coins I can't ID and I suspect it's because of finding in an earlier or later dies state than as posted at CC. The subject details look the part but as you know, the markers are missing (or should I say, different). Nonetheless, you can see the thickness in the date on your 1983. You, Coop, Errorcoins, Ocala, and a few others have really amassed a bunch of fine, fun varieties. I enjoy seeing the fruits of your labors. Good stuff! |

Found 1933 D this morning. Best date in a while. Somewhere around only 6-7 million minted. Alas the reverse was a little chewed up
