I did find some nice red coins from the 60's - 70's, also found a few RPMs, a couple of minor doubled dies, a couple of die cracks, and a foreign coin (10 cents from Singapore).

Maybe I'm not paying close attention but I've searched roughly a quarter of a million cents and I've never found a doubled die.
Nice finds Any wheats?

Where did you get those? Was it worth it? Sure could be a lot of fun though.

That looks like the type of bag I use to deposit coins at my bank. Interesting that you got one to search.

I did find a few wheats but nothing spectacular. It was a new bag because I found a 2015 cent in it. I've got another one still sealed, but I may wait a couple of days to start on it. Here is a link to one of the doubled dies that I found in this bag: https://goccf.com/t/231086
I posted a couple of the die cracks in this thread: https://goccf.com/t/230819
I don't think there are any gem zincolns over a couple of years old in circulation, they all rot away.
In the past (not in this bag) I have found 1984 double ear cents, 1983 DDR, 1963/3, and others, but the coins that elude me are the WAMs. I just can't seem to find one.

Keep searching, they are out there. There are a lot of doubled dies from 2009. I have looked at a lot of pennies, I have no idea how many over the years. It is a very inexpensive hobby, you can buy any amount of pennies from the bank , search them, then take them back and get your money back. It doesn't really cost anything, other than the few cents you decide to keep. It does take time though, there doesn't seem to be a lot of that these days.

Click the link to the type of 2009 you want to look at, there are some great photos there to help you know what to look for.
