I have just started roll hunting pennies. Searched 6 boxes with the first 2 boxes coming up with only 5 Wheaties. Box#5 I found 9 wheats 3 of which were 1909 non VDB and Box#6 netted me 19 wheats one being a 1909 non VDB and a 1937-s with what looks like doubling on the date and mint mark. I have been reading on the odds of finding 1909 and from what I have been reading here the chances are slim. I guess I was just lucky. Hopefully my searching continues with such luck.

yeah that is crazy good luck, with a low number of other wheat's it don't even seem like it could be an old penny jar dump.

But heck crazy luck is better than bad luck

I thought it was major luck. Some of the rolls had 2 wheats and another roll had 2 consecutive wheats. Maybe one day I will find an Indian Head penny.

Well maybe a sign of things go come. The new box I purchased this Saturday contained all new 2014s. Bummer

You're very lucky I have been through hundreds and hundreds of pennies and my oldest find is a 1914.
