jaycurrency2000 Valued Member United States 53 Posts	Posted 02/15/2016 6:19 pm I was looking through $50 of boxed penny rolls and found 14 wheat's this is my eldest find. A 1911 Wheat penny! 105 years old and still in circulation... I've heard of flying eagles being found in circulation, but this is pretty amazing. Who agrees and what's your oldest find?

jaycurrency2000 Valued Member United States 53 Posts	Posted 02/15/2016 7:45 pm I can't imagine finding a IHC that sounds impossible to find in a roll. But I'm seaching at least one box a week. I wouldent doubt my IHC find isn't far away. My last eldest find was 1917. I found 3 in change and in rolls whiten 5 years. It's probaly the most common teen coin to find in rolls.
