Awesome find! And in change no less - pretty amazing given it's been traveling about for 87 years.  |

I acquired the same wheat many years back in the same scenario :)
I myself found a few wheats from change-back this past week.

Congrats! I have collected on and off for 40+ years...this and that and finding a Wheat penny in change is what got me back into collecting again after a break of several years.  |

It's always a good day when you find a wheatie in change - especially a pre-1940 specimen. Congrats!

I got one in change too today, but yours is a much better date than my 1957. Not that yours is really worth more than a few cents, but as uncommon as getting wheats in change is these days, ones from the 20s are even rarer.

Anything pre-1930 in Wheats is awesome. ...so much harder to find than the much more common 30's, 40's, & 50'S ! Gratz ! -- |

Got this one in change at Walmart today. This coin has been somewhere for about 97 years, until it ended up at Walmart! What is more strange is that I have critiqued pocket change and several $100 bags of cents in the early 1960's, and have never found an Indian Head cent, even though they were not yet 97 years old in the 60's!

A F12 example.
It may be not worthy removing the green goo on the coin. 1929 is quite common.

Is it me, or do worn Lincolns like that 1919 have Abe smiling.  |
