I have some wheet pennies that I need to sell. I hate to part from them yet I have 2 trucks in the shop. I have to get at least one of them out ASAP. I don't know anything about the grade of them.

 To CCF , since you can't sell on CCF now , you might want to look into E-bay . You can post some photos of your nicest early date Wheaties here and we can tell you their grades and approximate price you should ask for them .

First, welcome to CCF. Second, I think that selling on ebay might be a good option, although I will note that unless you have some particularly amazing wheat cents in this collection, most circulate examples will be worth no more than five cents each.

I'll add, just as another perspective, that I've paid lots more than five cents for any number of common Lincoln cents. A few years ago I decided to complete a long-dormant LWC set. Obviously, I had to pay some decent prices for things like branch mint teens, but I also had a number of gaps in the twenties and thirties. So if I had a hole in, say, the 1937 D spot, that may be a 50+ million mintage coin theoretically worth five cents, but the fact is I didn't have one, and as I don't have a dealer in my small town, I was perfectly happy to pay five or ten bucks for one in nice condition to fill the hole. I was particularly pleased to buy multiple coin sets at a lower per-coin price, and if OP has "two trucks" of coins, that might be a good way to go. Put together a set of the common coins from your start date through the end of the series, sell it at a decent price, and you also reduce the packaging and shipping costs per coin. Needless to say, pull out the rare dates and coins in excellent condition.

 It sounds like your in a hurry so ebay is hot the way to go. Might as well just look up coin stores or hobby stores in your area.

If they're common, you'd have to sell an awful lot to pay for mechanic's bill. I've seen the same wheat rolls sitting at a dealer's table for the past two months at $2.50 each.
