XavierOfGreen Pillar of the Community United States 2589 Posts	Posted 10/18/2013 3:58 pm I've pulled some 2 rolls or so out off the magnets of TD and commerce bank machines over the years, but most of them are details grades from rust. Report this Post to the Staff
ckrakowski Pillar of the Community 987 Posts	Posted 10/18/2013 4:55 pm not sure if this counts but I bought 10000 wheat cents and have been going through them and I am not even 1/4 way done and I have found 51 52 55 so far. Edited by ckrakowski 10/18/2013 10:52 pm Report this Post to the Staff

CrazyCat Pillar of the Community United States 556 Posts	Posted 10/18/2013 11:10 pm That does sound pretty feasible. Though as others have mentioned, they may also get caught in the magnets that machines use to sort out foreign coins. So far I've found 2 steel pennies. One was in a roll of customer wrapped wheats, and it was copper plated. The other one was in a machine wrapped roll, and it had very little rust in it. Report this Post to the Staff
shootnstarz Valued Member United States 477 Posts	Posted 10/19/2013 09:02 am I didn't find them but I have a half dozen rolls I acquired in an inherited dealer's collection. Some are in really poor condition, some very nice. I have only opened one tube of them to inspect, rest are still sealed. Rick Report this Post to the Staff
wheatchaser140 Pillar of the Community United States 2368 Posts	Posted 10/19/2013 09:07 am @shootnstarz What was the ratio of D and S mints to the Philadelphia ones? I am in the Boston area so if you are also on the east coast too this would tell me my chances of finding the other mintmarks in a coin sorter reject slot. Report this Post to the Staff
