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.
CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!

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. :-)
