I bought a can of pennies, see pic, for 15.00 and all you could see were the paper rolls and one that said 1961P in the ad for it.

I unloaded the can to find UNC rolls from 1954 to 1961(most were taped shut with medical adhesive tape), on the left the partial of 1943P and 3 rolls saying 1910 to 1939, on the right the 1961P, 1960P and 1960D small and large date UNC rolls.

I opened and checked the 3 rolls saying 1910 to 1939, one roll was just 1937 with some D and S m/m, I put those back and the rest are shown. Actually they ranged from a 1909-S(not VDB) to 1964 with the ones out front being all the pre 1930 pennies with the 1909 all by itself, a 1911, 1915, 1917S, 1919D, 1925(cut) and a 1928.

Sounds like you did pretty well! How about pics of the 1909-S?

I hope you're going to check those steel cents for doubled dies, because they are some serious $$$.

Looks like a great score!

Coinfrog, my pictures suck but here is my best and last attempt at this one, don't ask for the reverse, it isn't a pretty coin.

I'll be checking them all eventually.

Thanks, sometimes you win!

Nice purchase. I bet that can has collector value as well.
