coin_kid Valued Member United States 381 Posts	Posted 12/02/2016 5:25 pm I have a fairly large amount of cleaned, corroded, and damaged Wheaties. I'm going to my LCS tomorrow, and I want some extra cash. Should I turn them in or hang on to them? I'm leaning to turning them in, since they're just collecting dust, but I want some other opinions. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

jbuck Moderator United States 188130 Posts	Posted 12/02/2016 6:00 pm I would if you can get more than face for them, but I do not think an LCS will pay a premium for anything cleaned or corroded. You can dump them into circulation (Bank, Coinstar, etc). Perhaps they will spark an interest when found.

If you have a local auction house that sells coins, count 500 into a jar and let them sell them that way. In person auctions sometimes results in higher prices for "junk" wheaties.
