merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 07/15/2011 10:36 pm OMG... reading this thread has changed by life! I started at the beginning, the first of this thread dated in 2008... I made it through the first 30 pages this week, reading when I could, and now I'm hooked! All the posters here feel like old friends! I went into my bank this afternoon and bought my first box! I haven't broken into it yet... I gotta get myself organised! My box is a Brink's box... do the numbers stamped into the sealing paper tape mean anything? Mine says "2011 FD (or ED?)" then under that it says "JUN 07" I just hope its not a whole box of 2011 pennies. I will report my findings... wish me luck! -Les Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 07/16/2011 7:23 pm OK, I opened my first box, grabbed a roll (plastic wrapped), broke it open, and here is the very first "coin" I examined... Any ideas? I can't even tell if it is a Lincoln or not! Is this a sign of some sort? -Les Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 07/16/2011 7:33 pm Still working on the first few rolls of this, my first box... two wheaties found so far, a 1951D and a 19?S mystery coin. Here they are: Is there anything I can do to try to bring out the date? the 19 can be clearly seen, as well as the S below it, but try as I might, I can't see the end of the date. Any suggestions? -Les Report this Post to the Staff
sich0015 Valued Member United States 255 Posts	Posted 07/16/2011 7:56 pm That first "coin" made me laugh Merclover. That is some serious road kill. I just found a 1926s in a roll. This is the lowest mintage cent that I have found in a roll at only 4.55 million and being 85 years old I am stunned. Edited by sich0015 07/17/2011 03:52 am Report this Post to the Staff
