In the past 9 months I have found 23 wheat coins, oldest 1911. Does not sound like much but that was in Canadian rolls, which I have a very hard time to get a hold of since only one bank will sell me pennies.  |

hundreds. oldest Wheaties -1911 d, 1914, 1919 s x2, 1919, 1919 d. around 10 1920's around 5 1930's oddly, would expect more than the 1920's.
most in one roll-7.
2 indian cents-1898 and 1905 holed.
about $2000 searched. I think I've been pretty lucky so far.
lots of canandians too. a 1920's and 1930's being the oldest.

I have also found thousands.
Best finds: Two solid rolls of steel wheats (I give my wife credit).
Most found at once: 52 solid rolls of wheats (bank find).
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors...
Roll hunting since '77
Dirt fishing since '72

I have also found thousands. Probably 10's of thousands.
I have them in paper bank wrapped rolls by year and mintmark, and in bank $25 boxes by years/decade.
I will need to thin my inventory down soon.

I have found about 500 in the year or so I have been hunting. 3 is my record for most found in the same roll. My oldest find is a better date, 1910-S. I have also found 4 Indian Head cents; 1888, 1902, 1903, and 1905. Here's my oldest find (sorry for the blurry obverse picture, I couldn't seem to get anything better).

I don't know the exact count, since I don't keep separate tabs on CRH finds versus change finds versus gifts versus what I found as a cashier.
I have around 600 wheats, of which maybe 100-150 are from circulation. The vast majority are from 1939-1958, although my oldest CRH find is a 1919. I also found a 1918 in my till at work, and pulled a 1916-S from an old lady's coin jar dump at my old work. I'd post pictures, but I'm posting from my phone at the moment.

I have found close to 50 wheats. My oldest is a 1910 wheat, but I have also found a 1943 steel.

Thousands of LWCs, most of them collected 30 years ago. I've probably only added a couple hundred in the last few months CRHing, but I added this one to the collection -  |

my list of missing ones says I have a 1915, and found about 6 rolls worth in like 10 boxes last year. People here got me started on halves bug, and haven't done cents in a while. Now I must get a bag of them to make up for lost time!
