I found a 1913 and 1918 wheat this weekend.  Wish they would have had a little letter under the date!  But still very nice to find!!  Edited by Mr Click

Quote:skibdibfinally found a 1949 s! It has been the last hole in my 1941 and later Lincoln Cent book that I have had since I was a kid. And today, that coin popped out of a box! Before it did, a 42s came out, and a 49. It actually made me think I had a chance at a 49s. And then it came! In the end, there were 29 wheats in the box. This box was born 7/1/2014, so it is new, but it was a good one. That book is now complete, 30 years in the making. That's fantastic! Congratulations. |

Searched my first box in several months yesterday and today. Nothing spectacular. Twelve wheaties (oldest 1939P), ten 2009's all P, and a 2014 P. These were the best:  For about 15 seconds I thought the 69S might have been a DDO, but it's not even close. I pulled a few 84P's to check for ears. Don't think so though. |

Being on the east coast, finding S mints is satisfying, but finding S mint LWCs - more so. Nice find!

one bag yielded about 15 wheats - best was an AU 36 (Brown) and a worn 23.
nothing much else of major interest.

2 boxes, first was a copper hoarder's dump. No wheats, nothing copper at all. 2nd box had 11 wheats, thankfully not from the same batch as the first box.
