I was at the bank today and they had a bag of pennies. So I took Carls advice and bought them. I went through them all and found the following:
12 Wheats-the oldest was 1944
11 Canadian Pennies
1 Indian Head 1905 (holed)
1 cent with an angel shape cut out of it.
I think I will try again tomorrow. I am going to buy a box (or equivalent) of pennies, nickels, dimes and halves and I will post what I find.
