Yes, these actually came from my credit union. I let them know hey anytime any old people or you see some penny wraps that are odd looking. Give me a call so they usually call me like these were found in plastic wrap not like suction plastic. Send a picture later. And some of the other wheat ones were wheat pennies I had for a while just haven't had time to go through them

Hey Littlemg2, that is a cool find from a bank/credit union.
I suggest you bring a dozen donuts on your next visit.

I worked at a credit union once. But we were so busy every day that I didn't have a chance to go through the money.

I worked retail in the late 1980s and was able to keep my circulation finds current at least.

Congrats! The 1931-D had a relatively small mintage of 4,480,000. I've been searching for 1931's (from any of the mints), but have not found a single one in my few years of coin roll hunting, so this is definitely a good find! Now you just need to find that elusive 1931-S (only 866,000 made).

Coincidentally, I also found a 1924-D a while ago (pictures uploaded in the CRH forum), so they are still out there!
