Picked up a new Brinks box last week and all I can say is....OMG! Opened up the first 10 rolls just now and got 11 wheats and 30% copper! Also found a few nice 70's in AU red and some 80's in MS red! Three of the wheats were 1916, 1926 and a 1928! The 1916 is my oldest find yet.
I normally get 8 wheats per box and about 20% copper....this is CRAZY!

Don't take this the wrong way,I'm not dismissing the 1998 WAM, I'm happy that I found it, but its like my 4th or 5th 1998 along with over 10- 2000 Wide AM's, so to me at least, its not that big of a deal. I've only found one 1999 Wide AM- now thats a major find!:) |

You're one VERY lucky guy....I can only dream of not getting excited over finding ANY WAM. They are very, very rare in my area. |
