I found a 1917 penny in a roll the other day. Not something that you find everyday in change. I also found 4 wheats in one roll. That is off the charts for roll hunting.

These times are upsetting everything. It's amazing what can be found.

No wheat cents yet, but I have seen an increase of 1960's and 1970's cents in my change.

My luckiest is a 1917 in vg, but I am pulling a lot of late 70's and early 80's in unc red out of change...almost a full roll of 84's but not one DDO in the bunch... a whole lot of nothing when I consider that I got no WAM's either

I too noticed more wheaties in the last box I got from the bank. Mostly from the 30's and 40's but I also found a 1919 and a 1918!

I've been going through some coin rolls lately also, but haven't found anything great like some of you. Guess I'd better get some more and cross my fingers.

I too have been finding more wheat's and copper in my search boxes than I have in the past. Also finding more silver Kennedy's too.

The Great Coin Dump of 2009 is indeed in full swing.

I'm working in the register every day and almost every day trying to check every coin. For one year I found around 70 wheat cents, 15 silver dimes, some unc. Everybody in my job think I'm crazy a little.. Well that is my hobby.

I'm finding a few wheat's and other coins(1886 Hong Kong ten cent in a nickle roll). So now that people are cashing in there coin jars and more and more coins that we thought where somewhat rare are now getting easier to find older coins in VG or AU shape. Will this cause them to be worth less soon?

I didn't find these in change, but, a friend gave me a bunch of Wheaties today, mostly in the 40s and 50s common dates, but these were in the pile-
1910/1920/1927/1929/1935/1939.
also, 2-1945S/1952s/and a 1954S
not bad for finding Wheats in Canada.

Oh!.. forgot, there were 3 dateless buffalos, and 3 indian heads, also in the bunch.

First thread I read tonight which makes me pull out my change I received from Walmart today and there is a 1945 and a 1973 in nine cents in change that I got back. Pretty cool. Time to get back to roll searching
