Saw a few others with a running thread, maybe I'll keep one going... Just of the really good stuff. I hoard any copper pennies, coins in good condition for being circulation, etc.

Penny Box (50 Rolls)
1957 D WC x2
1953 D WC

1969 Canadian Penny

And I think... a 2000 Wide AM Variety?

Spent more time organizing what I had before getting another box (also the new microscope decided to stop connecting directly to the PC so back to taking pics to a memory card):

Penny Box (50 Rolls) - Almost didn't find anything, everything came in at the end:
1929 D WC (Pictured)
1944 D WC
1945 WC
1951 D WC
1952 S WC
1953 D WC
1955 D WC
1957 D WC

1976 with a ND Stamp (Pictured)

Nice finds... especially that '29-D...

BTW, I'm still searching for my first 2000 Wide AM... I've found a few 1998s, but no 1999s or 2000s.

I can't remember for sure, but if I recall correctly, all of the 1998 Wide AMs I found were in the 2010s decade... so I'll take any good vibes I can get!

Still here! LOL, other hobbies took over for a bit.

Box of Pennies and a box of Nickels.

Skunked out on the Nickels; everything was 2000 or newer and nothing exciting in it.

For the Pennies I found:

Canadian 1998, 1989, 1968, 1966

1957 D WC x2
1953 S WC
1945 S WC - Not too shabby looking (Pictured)
1944 S WC - Lots of Corrosion
1940 S WC - Lots of Corrosion
1930 WC (Pictured)

And the highlight of the box was
2016 S Proof (Pictured)
Hard to get the microscope to take a picture of a proof, had to use my phone.

Always fun saving a proof from the wilds of circulation. Thanks to which ever one of you put it out there; I found it! lol

Alright, back to lurking and reading what everyone posts. :-)

If that makes your job easier, then yes. Yes it is!
