still lookin Pillar of the Community 967 Posts	Posted 12/23/2018 5:01 pm I once picked up two bags of cents (same as four boxes) and picked out over 3800 wheat cents. So it is a real possibility. Report this Post to the Staff
oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5246 Posts	Posted 12/23/2018 5:23 pm Just like these boxes filled with silver, imagine an older collector who dies and has all these wheat cents. The heirs don't know the value or don't want to lug them to a distant coin shop for 3 cents each, so off they go to the bank! Report this Post to the Staff
still lookin Pillar of the Community 967 Posts	Posted 12/23/2018 6:03 pm That is exactly what happened on the two bags of cents. The teller at that bank actually takes the change back behind the counter and dumps it into the change machine. The teller actually told the individual that they may want to keep them. I think grandpa died. They knew they were wheat cents and told the teller to dump them anyway. The teller knew I would come in to get the bags because I picked them up every Monday. The carrier runs on Tuesday. The teller was smiling when I went in to get them. Report this Post to the Staff
