10,000,000 cents were given to General Mills, along with 5,500 Sacs from the mint.. Some cards held both coins. From About.com:"Although Cheerios Pennies are generally nothing special, a small percentage have been found to have come from dies meant for Proof pennies, and they have the " Wide AM" reverse die type. The average Cheerios Penny which is still on its card is worth about $5 on ebay. (A 2000 Lincoln Cent that is not on the sealed Cheerios card is only worth face value.) |

They are all in the package but you can only see the obverse will get a picture. But they look like all I have seen. I got all 6 of the for .50 so less then .10 each. But I bought all that he had.

I think About.com is wrong. As far as I know no WAM has ever been found on a Cheerios cent. |

I found several Cheerios cents back in 1999 and early 2000, but I broke them open to spend, or I lost the few I kept. I did keep a Hallmark-packaged uncirculated 2000-P Sacagawea, though.

Never seen this Cheerios penny thing before. Cute idea. I don't eat cereal, so never even saw it on the boxes when this was going on. Thanks for posting it.
