And the results are in...
I opened the roll very carefully, and managed to push the coins out without damaging the paper. Please let me know if you would like shots of individual coins. Didn't think it would be a good idea to post 60+ pics!

From left to right:
2 - 1940
1 - 1941
3 - 1948
2 - 1951
3 - 1952
3 - 1953
4 - 1955
2 - 1957
2 - 1958
and...
Top two rows:
8 - 1926

Guess I win the bet, only 8!

YES!

Since I won, what's it I get?

Am surprised in 1926, those aren't that common in bulk.

26's are cool - even though the rest are just common wheats it's still fun to look through!

I'm very new to this hobby, so I'm s bit unsure as to the condition. From what I've learned so far, they appear to be pretty good. I'm taking a closer look at each coin and learning as I go.

The 1926s were all pretty rough. Here is the best out of the 8...

Not bad. I'm just surprised you got the 1926's. I was really expecting 1940+ only.

The '26s are a nice surprise. Not shocked at the others. Still, it must be good to finally know.
