Customer rolls are usually really good or horrible, I got 10 rolls and found one wheat a roll which is good. I'm going to order the coins sorter and it sorts silver as well. for $90 it's a good deal. I might make a website to try and sell copper coins and a lot of other coins. Yeah those CAM'S are HOTHOTHOT

.Even got it a little cleaner


Ugh ... bummer ... that was a very lovely struck-through-capped die Lincoln Cent ... now it is a cleaned example of a nice error ...

Whatever value it had to a serious collector is now reduced a significant amount ... say 80% less IMHO.

Lesson #1 ... never clean your coins.

Don't worry you're finding plenty of good coins worth way more than a cent

David: yea I made a big mistake but now I know NOT to clean any coins I find.

I went to the bank and got 50 CWR's. All I found was some copper pennies. No Wheats or anything

But I did go to the bank where I found 138 wheats and got 2 more sealed boxes of pennies. I went through one and found 59 Wheats!

I still have another box to go through tomorrow. I also found this wheat could it be a struck through capped die? I found one of these coins already and they are a little similar.

That is just very well circulated coin. You may never find another capped die in the wild. Mrlexmark you exude excitement and I applaud the fervor in which you have come to searching. One piece of advise, if I may, read all you can, learn as much about what you are looking at and continue to enjoy your new hobby.

So I'm going through another sealed box of pennies and I came across this Pennie. It looks like a silver/ blue. haven't seen anything like it before. Its also in really good condition. it doesn't look like a old coin neither.

Any ideas?

Um, it could be an aluminum cent, but I would be really, really, shocked.

Yes, bigger pics are needed, at least large enough to see the date. There are a couple error possibilities but it is most likely a cent that has been plated post-mint.

I'm 90% certain that it is a 74, which is why I said an aluminum penny. I know the chances of that are slim to none, so I'm guessing plated.
