josephm99 Pillar of the Community United States 791 Posts	Posted 07/28/2017 02:00 am Got a new box yesterday and the first roll produced three wheats. A 1952-D and two 1957-Ds. However, did five more rolls and no other wheats so far. Did find 2 80's BU zincolns, a 1971-D reverse Greaser, and a 1967 with what appears to be a small die crack.

coinee Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 07/29/2017 11:57 am Pictured below is a 1982 large date Lincoln I found CRH that is weighing in at 3.215 grams. This weighs 0.105 grams more than the expected 3.11 grams. I have weighed others to test if the scale is off and they are weighing at the expected weight. Outside being a normal chocolate brown the coin is clean. Any idea why this Lincoln is overweight? Thanks Edited by coinee 07/29/2017 12:10 pm Report this Post to the Staff
WheatBackPenny Valued Member United States 406 Posts	Posted 07/30/2017 4:07 pm Joseph- three wheats in one roll is pretty good! Can you post pics of the die crack? Anyways, I just finished my best box so far. Wheats- 16, earliest 1926, 1929, 1930, and 1936. Canadians- 8, earliest 1969. 2 S mints- 1968 and 1970. I opened a roll and spread the contents out, only to find this staring at me! I expected it to be a common, newer date, like 1907 or 1903, but when I flipped it over, I saw that it was an 1883 (or 1893)! Also noteworthy were the these BU memorials: http://goccf.com/t/293507 Edited by WheatBackPenny 07/30/2017 4:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coinee Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 07/30/2017 5:19 pm I finished up a box this weekend. Nothing spectacular. I have yet to find any AM varieties. The earliest was this 1935 wheatie among a total of 16. I managed to find 6 2009s, 2 from Denver. Oh, and one of the worse looking 2009s which looks like a Formative Years one. A 1995 popped-up that, at first, appeared to be just bent. But looking at it more closely it appears that the damaged may have occurred at the mint. On the obverse there is a rim indent along where the bend is. My guess is the coin was struck, stayed and the next planchet fell on it off center and got struck against the already struck coin causing the dent and rim impression. Could be a fairy tail but seems reasonable. One of the nicer of the pre-80s coins was a 1964D and 1969. Edited by coinee 07/30/2017 5:24 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coinee Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 07/30/2017 5:21 pm WheatBackPenny: I've yet to find an Indian, but I have done a lot of penny CRH either. I only just finished my second box. Report this Post to the Staff
WheatBackPenny Valued Member United States 406 Posts	Posted 07/30/2017 5:58 pm Coined- I have actually only searched through about 7 boxes worth. Only been coin roll hunting for two months. Also, that 64 D is stunning! Another thing, the '95 might just have been pressed against another coin as PMD, but I am by no means an expert. Report this Post to the Staff
aristarchus123 Pillar of the Community United States 1696 Posts	Posted 07/30/2017 7:19 pm That 1883 Indian is amazing! Was it in a machine-wrapped roll or a hand-wrapped roll? Congratulations, WheatBackPenny! Report this Post to the Staff

WheatBackPenny Valued Member United States 406 Posts	Posted 07/30/2017 9:17 pm Machine wrapped. I didn't realize what it was when I first saw it because I did not think that I would find a coin this old! Report this Post to the Staff
WheatBackPenny Valued Member United States 406 Posts	Posted 07/30/2017 9:27 pm Coinee- the mint Weight Tolerance for a penny is 0.13 grams, so it is normal for your coin to be slightly overweight. Report this Post to the Staff
coinee Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 07/31/2017 2:29 pm Thanks for the tolerance information WBP. Report this Post to the Staff
