10S in fine You have a picture of that, scmoore61? It's always been a goal of mine to find a pre-1916 mintmarked wheatie - especially an "S" mint.

I think I've only found a 1919D in recent years CRH. In the mid 70s though I was fortunate to find a few D and S mint pre-20s LWCs.

April's rolls closed out with a bang... found the 1936-D in the final batch of the month that I just finished up tonight, and the 1935-S a few days ago... I now only need the 1938-D and 1939-D to complete my 1934-Date Lincoln short set (less varieties).

Thanks, jbuck... the 38-D and 39-D wheaties are going to be tough due to their comparatively low mintages (20M and 15M respectively)... Will be interesting to see if I get them before or after that long awaited CRH 1950-D nickel... or if I get them at all. LOL.

nice wheats! I'm always hoping I get some 20's or 30's wheats when I search

Hello everyone! Went through a $25 box on Saturday. Found our third Indian Head cent via roll searching, a 1900. Found 6 wheat pennies, 11 Canadians and 16 2009 cents. Seems when there is an Indian in the box, the number of wheats is less than normal (the two other boxes with an Indian had 4 wheats each) I'll take the IHC any day :)

Yes, aristarchus123, it was! My son found it in his roll, and was very excited! That expression is worth its weight in gold :)

I went through $50 in cents and the only interesting things I found in addition to a few late wheat cents were a 1947 maple leaf cent and this chromed 1997-P cent. At first I thought it was a dime when it tumbled out of the roll!

I found this 1920-S today. It has been around, but it is a hole-filler for me!

 nice to fill a hole! I found a 1920D the other day; it's been a long while since finding an early LWC with an MM.
