That 44 is beautiful Yanks, congrats!
Two boxes down for the week with the following pre-1940's
1918 1928 1937 1939
Bought box number three this morning and will tear into today. I have a foot injury so roll hunting is passing the time while I stay off my feet. :)

I got 11 rolls from the bank. 100% copper! Every one was 1976 or earlier. Two solid 1966 rolls were included with that as well! A few were uncirculated and the vast majority were higher grade. Just a couple of culls. About a dozen 1940s-1950s Canadian cents. This seems to be part of a collection.

My first George V cent! It tumbled out of a plastic machine-wrapped roll. I'm surprised it made it through the machine, as it is heavier than a copper Lincoln Cent. I was wondering whether I would ever find one in a roll of Lincolns. Up to now, my earliest Canadian cents to show up were George VI cents from 1939 and 1940. I don't think I had ever seen a George V in person before. Exciting!

Nice find! Do I spy the very bottom of the reverse of a wheat in the top right of your first picture?

Great George V. I have never seen one in person but the hunt continues.

WOW, Yanks21! I've found wheats from the late 1950s in that condition, but never one from the 1940s. Congrats!
And aristarchus123, that's a very neat 1932 George V cent... Kudos!
CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!

Wullffy 11. Were the rolls you got customer rolled or machine rolled?
