I was cleaning out my car yesterday, and I pulled out the change that had accumulated in my cupholder over the last month.

As I put the handful of coins down, I noticed the back of one of the cents didn't look right. I turned it over, and it was a 1904 Indian Head cent! After showing my wife and coin collecting kids, I went back and looked through the rest of the change. I then found a 1945-P Lincoln Wheat cent!

As you can imagine, I was (and still am) very excited. My best so far was finding a 1925-P LWC in change.

Ha! What a way to find two pieces like that.

On an unrelated note, I am now completely open to vacuuming your automobile, free of charge

Whew! You saved me from having to drag out the camera. I got a 1947S wheatie in my change today. But your coins beat mine....

Funny thing is, I got all excited and showed my husband....then we talked about how rarely we see wheaties and that you NEVER find IHC's in circulation anymore. Ha!

Thanks everyone. I think I know where I got these from. I had some cash left over from our family vacation in early June, so I bought supper for all of us at our local Zaxby's. I go through the drive through, so that had to be where they came from.

I've already gotten all the coins out, but I'll still take you up on your offer.

Actually, I've always wanted a Model T, about a 1912-1915 vintage. I guess you could call it my dream car
