Went to the bank today and bought my first $25 box of pennys and found 7 wheats, a 1998 WAM, a pannama penny and one dime lol. Who knew this hobby could be so fun!

Welcome to the obsession. :-)

It starts with pennies where you find a bunch of wheats and a few WAMs and CAMs... and then you figure, "What the hey?" and grab a box of nickels where you find your first War Nickel or Buffalo Head. Then you start asking for Half Dollars at the bank and find yourself doing a victory dance when you come back with silver.

...

And then you're hooked for good.

Again, welcome to the obsession. :-)

And guess what's coming next?






















A shot of the WAM. Is it your first?

....and you even made money in the process? Profit of 1 cent with the dime in the box. Congrats!
