I keep them and have been known to buy them (cheap of course).

I keep all Wheaties I find. If I already have them, they go to a small tupperware-type container I have, mostly because I don't know what else to do with them. The same is true of any Canadian KGVI and early Elizabeth pennies and nickels I find. Silver coins (Canadian), if they're badly worn, get sold for the silver value, because they would be pretty useless to a collector.

Daviscfad gave the technical definition , but culls can also just be coins which have no use in sets or as part of collection .which is the way I took the thread to mean.
since the extras of the OP were intended to go back to a shop or other for cash to buy other coins , I figured they had to be normal circulated unwanted ,not needed coins .

Some 1968 and before.
I say "some 1968" because there were both silver and nickel coinage produced that year. However 1968 and 1967 coins have less silver than 1966 and before.
Any coin store here will buy silver for melt value.
It seems that maybe I misunderstood what you meant by "culls" -- to me a "cull" is anything in a lesser condition than what I have in my album. I guess the Wheaties, etc. that I put in a tupperware container might well be coins someone else wouldn't mind collecting.

In reference to US coins, 1964 and earlier dimes and quarters are silver. 1970 and earlier for half dollars. |

Yea I guess they can be considered culls also I just look at coins that are dinged up an I cant read as cull b/c they mostly have no value over face unless it is metal content... Edited by daviscfad

I save Wheat culls until I have enough to sell back to my dealer at 3.5 cents each. hehehehehe....hey, he set the price to buy them. It's pretty funny, but he treats "unsearched", bulk Wheats as a commodity. I can tell he doesn't really like taking my culls, but he has to treat me like any other customer he'd be buying Wheats from.

Culls to me are anything I don't necessarily need in my collection. Aunc coins get put in flips, the rest are currently going into decade rolls. Though at this rate I may also expand to decade & mint, some years to Date & Mint. That's the mode so far.
