Went to an estate auction Saturday, surprise, and bought one of my favorites, grab bags. They had 4 bags of Wheat Cents marked 1940s and 1950s. Each bag had about 250 coins and I bought all four for $20.00 plus VA. sales tax of 6% I think. Anyway, I found 5 teens, 4 1920s, 23 1930s all in G-4 to 8 condition and this. Have fun grading:

I don't think the scanner is doing this coin justice, I see some mint luster poking thru..... AU50.
