I'm proud of my kid, not only has he held his first steady job, but he's found several old coins working at Taco Bell since September of last year.

He's not a collector by the way.

Oldest wheat is 1910, then 1915D. Buffalo is a 1936.

Interesting that people still carry these around. I am curious to know, do you live in a small or big town..

@TheBurnz, 33,000 population of my town.
While I was roll hunting, from 2008-2014, I found about 2,000 silvers locally, I considered myself a casual hunter, investing maybe five hours per week.

The wheaties are nice, but getting silver at face value is awesome! Kudos to your son.

This is one of the few reasons that I want to work at a convenience store. I heard a story of somebody who worked in a small town convinience store and recovered $1k in silver coins at face value in just a few years.
