Quote: First time I pulled an Indian from a CWR That's funny. That is the only way I have found them. To bad it has a hole. The date is my Dad's birth year. He mounted two 1907's on cuff links (remember them?). I haven't really noticed if men still ware them, except with a tux.

So far today, all I've found is this little rim Cud.   Quote: That's funny. That is the only way I have found them. I'm surprised that I haven't found more in CWR's, as those are where I've made all of my best Wheat cent finds. I have found all told about a dozen Indians over the years, but all from BWR's

jprine - NICE find on the red 68-S! That IS the lowest mintage Memorial cent. Finding a red one is pretty tough!

Might as well make a Christmas ornament out of that IH with a hole in it.

I found a few older wheaties in an S&S box last nigh. 1919D, 1920, 1935. But the prize of the evening was a 1933D. That's a hole filling, low mintage, high value LWC! OO

Owassokie! Nice finds. I bought a "bag" of wheat pennies from a coin shop in Cleveland - found 6 33D's in various grades... I guess they were only on the lookout for the "Key Dates"

The only coin shop here always has bags of wheats that are "unsearched" but they always slip up and say there's good coins in there not many from the 50's I just laugh. Last night I was bidding on 65 LMC in mint cello 60-64 and someone paid a bit more then I was gonna pay. Lets see a pic of that 33D hole filler

So I went to my main pick-up bank to get some nickels, and along with the nickels, the teller gave me two customer wrapped rolls. She said that some old lady cashed in some wheat pennies and she saved the pennies for me!    Results coming soon!
