This is a new one for my collection - I had 102, 103, 107, and 108. Still missing 101 (not holding my breath on finding that in circulation), 104 (not holding my breath on that one either), 105, and 109.

Nice! That's pretty awesome that you found it a customer wrapped roll.

Right now, I am currently searching a box of Pennie's with mostly Denver minted cents in it. Haven't found anything worth keeping yet, but I hope it changes soon. I did find a very minor bar on column DDR on a 2001 Philly cent, but I decided to toss it back into the pile. Would of been too minor to list, so that's why I didn't keep it.

Nice! Good luck with the hunt! I'm just doing the final cleanup and filing away of finds after several big hunts, so posting a few other nice variety finds as well!

@Tropicalbats yeah, I had that impression too, but was waiting for your opinion, since you know much more than I do about the scarcity of different Lincoln Cent varieties. I get the sense that this may be a rarer variety than is generally recognized, because I think a decent number of the slabbed examples may be misattributed 103s. Does that seem accurate in your experience?

Haven't really looked for mis-attributed slabs, but seems likely. But in general I see a lot of 1972 doubled dies and 106 is second only to 104 in how seldom I see it. 105 is fairly rare on the market, but partly an artifact of how hard it is to see even in hand. I regularly find 105 in BU rolls that have been searched.

@Tropicalbats interesting! I wondered if that was the case for 105 as well. I've never found one in circulation, but I suspect I wouldn't be able to see it even if it were there on most of the circulated coins I hunt. Speaking of, how do you usually acquire the BU rolls you search, and what would you consider a good price per roll? I'd be interested in getting some, but I've always just hunted circulating change and don't have a ton of experience with that.
