Hey everyone! I started hunting pennies about a week or two ago and have gone through about $100 worth, so far my oldest is a 1920! I've found 17 wheats so far and my brother found a steel penny which I'm pretty jealous of! (Do you guys ever find steel pennies)? I hope someday I can find an Indian head.

1895 IHC.

I found one steel cent once, but it was so corroded that I could barely tell what it was.

1899 Indian Head and no steel cents. Searched through probably 5 dozen boxes of pennies in my time, and very surprised I haven't found one steel

I found 3 IHP's on the 4th of July last year in machine rolls. I stopped CRH'ing late last year but in my year of searching (had to have been through atleast 20 boxes), those were the only IHP's I found. I don't have the dates off hand but they were 1900's.

My oldest find is an 1918.

My wife and I split boxes, and within her half of the box, she found a 1907 Indian Head and a 1909 Wheat(no S, no VDB)

I've found one steel penny in circulation
