Back in November, I asked my credit union manager to save me all the cents from their coin counter. Decembers haul, four fifty dollar bags. Sorted a bag last night. Here's the wheats from the first bag. 109 total, oldest, 1934.

20,000-Lincoln-Cents
Will update as they are opened.

Wow, that's great. Very nice of your bank to do that for you. I'm sure you'll find a lot more this way. Hope your bank isn't somebody's dump bank though.

That's a 2.2% wheat find whereas I get only about 0.3% out of Brinks boxes. Be sure to thank that bank!

What about BU copper Memorials? Don't forget to grab those too!

Excellent haul!

I agree with BadThad, make sure you thank them and watch for those Memorial coppers as well!
Rest in Peace

I have approximately 55,000 Lincolns squirreled away.

Don't know that I will ever go through them.

Probably leave it up to the kids or grandkids.
