Have a nice day!

@ccgi, I'm not sure what you mean by "really fast", but note that looking through rolls of cents from the bank is rarely a fast way to find them. If you need is immediate, can you just buy them? Or perhaps you can explain yourself a little why the need to be fast is so great?

Forget about finding them unless you have plenty of time to search through hundreds of bank rolls .
Best bet is to buy them , E-bay, coin shops , coin shows . or you can look for online dealers that sell in bulk ( 2500
pieces or more ) .

Process to get a lot really quick is as follows:
1) Find a local coin shop.
2) Drive, walk or bike there
3) Ask to see the low cost wheats
4) Search through, they sell them for around 5 cents each
5) Buy the ones you want.

I did this with Indian Head/Bison nickels works really well to get you a lot at low cost.

Another option: Ask family members if they have any coins.

that local coin shops are the fastest way to go, and you can get circulated Wheaties fairly cheap. The next fastest method would be to find sellers on ebay.

The least expensive way is to search through bank rolls of pennies... finding them in rolls will only cost you one cent each, but Wheaties are showing up leas often these days. My experience, on average, is about one wheatie per very six rolls (300 cents). Your average may vary.

to the CCF!
