trying to actually, my original search of 6K Wheaties I only found 5 in the whole lot. Since then I have maybe found another 5 or 6 (2 just last week) but I haven't had the time to search them. They are also 1957 1956. My coins are just the circulated ones not in such great shape as yours.
I figure slowly I would build them up and hope fully replace the old ones with newer specimens.
For them being so common I don't find that many, pretty disappointing.

I'm not seeing anything else, I guess maybe this one will have to be for JC.

Halo1st, 021C has a die chip on the letter E on the reverse, actually I found 14 of them in the bunch I'll have to send those to JC since some of them look to be different stages of 021.

When the dies are in different stages of chipping, the same die maybe identified as several different ones because of the advancing of the chipping. At least on the Mint marked ones you can determine locations of the mint marks as a constant feature for ID'ing these. With out the mint mark....

I know Cohen & Hardy have more listings than the COC website, so sometimes it is newly listed on COC but has already been discovered - but yours is a new discovery
Cross references: Cohen Pending, Hardy 57P-4EL-Pending - Congratulations :)
