Well, here is what I have so far in my search for 1000 wheats:
104 wheats and the pre 1934s are: 1913 (obv G4, rev AG3), 1917 (VG, but it looks like it got in a fight with a hammer), 1919 D (G4, weak strike), 1920 (VG8), 1923 (G4, got in fight with hammer), 1924 (x2, F12, VG8), 1925 (F12), 1925 (F12), 1929 (F12), 1930 (VF35, maybe EF40)
and a 1947 D in AU55RB
228 Canadians and the pre-'65s are:
1942, 1944, 1949, x2, 1951, 1953, 1955, 1956, x2, 1957, x3, 1960, 1961, x2, 1962, x2, 1963, x2, 1964, x2
and I got 2 1967s
I will try to post every 5 boxes from now on. And no, copper fever is not curable. I have contracted a very serious case and I am running out of money.

Nickelsearcher, welcome to our little slice of copper heaven. You pull a common everyday wheatie then you find a nice BU wheatie then the fever will get you everytime.  Ricardocody you find the coolest stuff. You go dude!! |

Went through a box of pennies and found eight wheats (oldest was 1940) and 12 Canadians (including a George VI from 1948 [1947 w/maple leaf next to the seven]).

Been lurking for awhile - this is my first post! I have been going through 4 boxes of cents ($25 boxes) each month. Here are my finds for this month. I got 1828 copper cents 1959-82, (total includes wheat cents, but not zinc 82's). I found only 30 wheat cents, (best finds 1924/VG, 1945S/F, 1949S/XF and 1956D/AU). I also found 4 Canadian cents,(57,76,84,01), and a 2001 starfish Bahama cent!
I live in Poway Ca. (just north of San Diego.) That means I get almost nothing but "D" mint coins... 1983 through 2010 coins were 94.9% Denver. 1959 through 82 coins are about 62% Denver. Even wheat coins are about 53% Denver.
In about 70,000 searched so far, I have found only three 2009 "P" mint (log cabin) lincolns, and just one 2009 "P" mint (early life) lincoln. Nothing yet on the other two designs! In the same time I've gathered over 1600 - 2009 "D" mint lincolns (all four designs)!
I need "P" mint lincolns, and hope to trade "D" and "S" mint coins for them in the future...(yes, I am aware of the restrictions).
I did get 100 "S" mint coins this month. (93 dated 68 through 74), the other 7 dated in the 40's and 50's.

LastGold  ..and when you get enough posts, I'm sure there'll be a few guys willing to swap P's for D's or S's.....I am saving all of my reds just in case the opportunity comes along |
