Jangofett, I love getting cents from 1959 too, especially when they're from Philadelphia! Those seem as elusive as finding a wheat, the vast majority of 1959 cents I see have "D," and I am out east!

 I haven't found a silver certificate in the wild for over forty years.

I haven't found one at all! But I have found a Series 1950 B $20 before (which I still have). Not a silver cert but still a good find for me.

Always exciting indeed Jbuck. I just found another wheat in circulation. It was a 1947-S this time around! It was just my 33'rd one so I am not going to complain!

A mate of mine found a colourised Australian 50 cent millenium proof in the cash register of his parents store. I couldnt believe that someone would be stupid enough to use a coin worth around $50. Its not like it was hard to spot - the coin is coloured - that should have been a dead giveaway that it was not a standard coin! As a collector, it was a sad sight to see that the fields had been dinged and damaged by circulation.

Tonight I got TWO S-mint cents from work not even realizing they were S, just got them because they were copper! 1968-S and 1974-S. Three nights previous I scooped up another 1974-S cent from change from Target! A total of three S-cents in the last three days seems pretty good to me especially for being in Michigan!
