I also found several nice older Red/Red Brown cents including:

Went through about 10 rolls out of my box late last night. Found five wheats and three 2009s so far. One wheat was a 1930 with a nice color but smoothed out lincoln head. Hopefully the rest of the box will be good and wheatie.

I knocked out 4 boxes this week. 48 wheats with some pre-1940 ones included. A 1919D,1920,1928,1934,1937,1939S. 24 from the 40's and 18 from the 50's. Got a plastic penny, and a 2000 Barbados cent. And, one of those counterstamped Kennedy's.

Yes...a plastic play penny....what, you've never found one yet? I guess you need to search more coins. I've found 5 or 6 penny ones and 1 dime. It's amazing the quality control Brinks has. All were found in Brinks rolls.

HoosierDaddy, right now I would be happy to get some decent fillers for my wheats. Would think with alot of us doing 2-3 boxes and more a week that at least some nice semi-keys would show up. Myself have yet to find a semi-key or any kind of a variety or error. Haven't even found a nice struck through in a couple of months now. Luck will change here soon.

Yepper...I think this week I'll find something. I've been really good this past week or so. Come on Karma! I helped a VERY elderly old lady into Best Buy by carrying in her returned computer. She was taking baby steps and all of those people just ignored her and walked around her. I didn't think twice. At first, when I asked her if I could help her, she grabbed her purse. My next thought was she was going to clobber me. She just got her purse out of the way and smiled. Personally, I don't think she would have made it to the return counter. Then, secondly, I found the perfect Christmas present for mom. Now it was a late gift but it will be hard to top. She got to go see an Elvis tribute concert on the King's birthday. It was a big show with a dinner buffet. Tickets were $80+. But the joy she got from the show....priceless. I enjoyed the show, too, but got more enjoyment watching her and knowing it was the perfect Christmas gift. So, I'm DUE! Come on Karma!

I went through a box of cents and found one 1948 Wheat cent...and then went to 7-11 to get a coke and got a 1942-D in my change!! I think I'm going to keep going back to the 7-11! Anyone want a slurpee?
