Hello, Yesterday was my first time CRHing. I knew quite a lot by wandering the fourms and a subreddit dedicated to CRHing.
I decided to spend 25$ on a box. I looked through it in about an hour and a half.
I found 1 1858 FLYING EAGLE
I found 1 1942 Candian Cent
I found 9 Wheat Cents (Oldest:1937)

Is this good for 1 box.
And This is my 1st thread on Coincommunity!

Thanks wheatchaser140,
I have noticed that there isn't much posts of people finding flying eagles...
going to guess I am extremely lucky. (I have collected for a while but never
bothered with small cents much)

to the CCF.

Curious what company delivered this box of cents ... The Flying Eagle coin does not pass through any modern coin counter.

Great find from a box.

nickelsearcher, It was a customer wrapped roll box. It was repackaged. I live in a city in south florida that is quite small and has a few buisness aswell as 70% senior citizen rate. I precdict a small buisness ordered a box. got a sulprus of pennys and than repackaged and exchanged. I have gotten indian heads in my change in the 9 years I have lived here. (even tough the city is a little older than 100 year old.
