carnold744 Valued Member United States 415 Posts	Posted 05/16/2015 11:48 am So I went to a local flea market today, and got a nice little haul of wheat cents for my book. Wound up getting 82 hole fillers for $26.50. Here are the dates I got. How would you guys say I did for $26.50? 09, 09 VDB 10 11, 11-D 12, 12-S 13, 13-D, 13-S 14 15, 15-D 16, 16-D, 16-S 17, 17-D, 17-S 18, 18-D, 18-S 19, 19-D 20, 20-D, 20-S 21, 21-S 23, 23-S 24, 24-S 25-D, 25-S 26-D, 26-S 27, 27-D, 27-S 28, 28-D, 28-S 29, 29-S 30, 30-D, 30-S 31 32, 32-D 33, 33-D 34-D 35-D, 35-S 36-D, 36-S 37-D, 37-S 38, 38-D, 38-S 39-D, 39-S 40-D, 40-S 41-D, 41-S 42-D, 42-S 44-D, 44-S 45-S 48, 48-D 49-S 50-S 51-S 54 55, 55-S I think I did a pretty darn good job to be honest. Went from having a really empty 1909-1940 folder to almost filling it up. Now I am basically down to all the key dates, so the folder will probably stay like this for a while, but it definitely looks better! Report this Post to the Staff

Dar Pillar of the Community United States 1476 Posts	Posted 05/16/2015 6:38 pm What a GREAT day you had. Some nice lookers too. the 1909 VDB looks nice, might want to give it a little acetone/verdicare treatment and I bet it would be great. Same with the 1917 and 34D. Love the 23S woody. Nice lamination on the 21S too. What a haul! Great price. Edited by Dar 05/16/2015 6:42 pm Report this Post to the Staff
carnold744 Valued Member United States 415 Posts	Posted 05/16/2015 8:51 pm I agree that the 09 VDB has some really nice detail to it. I might have to pick up some verdicare for it. Couldn't believe there were 09 coins in the bin I was cherry picking through. That dealer always has some good stuff in his buckets that he lets people cherry-pick, though. I got most of the Buffalo nickels in the set I completed from him. Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19943 Posts	Posted 05/16/2015 8:59 pm Great deal for $26.50! Some of them appear to be cleaned/corroded, but that 26S looks great, at least VF but I would guess EF just from the obverse. It it is, that's a $30 coin on it's own. Lincoln Cent Lover!

Avshater22 Valued Member United States 337 Posts	Posted 05/17/2015 5:45 pm I'd say amazing price. I've been trying to find a deal like that for a while as my 1909-2007 lincoln book is almost empty until the mid 30's except for the three of four I already have. Report this Post to the Staff
