muddler Pillar of the Community United States 7189 Posts	Posted 12/04/2011 9:00 pm I miss my wheat cents. I had over $50 of them when my home was burglarized in the 90's. At least all my other coins were in the safe deposit box then. I wonder how may memorial cents I had in the two #10 coffee cans that disappeared then too. Report this Post to the Staff
