I have only been coin roll hunting for about a month and a half, so until today my oldest penny had been a 1936. Today I went to the bank and picked up ten rolls of pennies. In those rolls there were six wheat pennies. I was already excited when I discovered a 1934, and several rolls later I stumbled across my oldest find to date: a 1918 Wheat penny, probably around VG8. A while later I returned to the same bank and took another ten rolls. To my shock, I found another 1918 Wheat penny! Unfortunately, it had severe damage, but it was still a 99 year old penny! First Ten Rolls     Second Ten Rolls    Overall, great finds!

Just finished another box and came across these great looking 1960 cents. I will always be amazed what you can dig out of these rolls.  Oh yeah, this was a bonus:
