I'm looking forward to 50 posts so I can take advantage of the BST forum I've seen some nice stuff there.

The going bulk rate is 5 cents per coin, regardless of the contents. I've bought many bags from my dealer. As he takes them in, he tosses them into a bag and then sells the bag. There's ususally some nice 40's and 50's BU's and a real mix from 1909 up. Maybe I'm just lucky, but that is the norm for me.

Always be aware: THERE ARE VIRTUALLY NO UNSEACHED WHEATS 99.9% of the Wheats out there have been searched at some point.

I agree with Thad, there are "almost" no unsearched bags of LWC's out there.
I also go to a local dealer and he too places ALL the LWC's that come in, in a plastic jar for me and when it is nearing full, I am able to watch him with his counting machine, count the cents( not the counting machine that damages the coins ) and he sells them to me for $2.50-3.00 per roll, I know he has checked for key dates, but this does not bother me, I like to search for the varieties, which I know he does not.....5-6 cents each, in my opinion, I am happy, after all, they do not grow on trees and no e-bay delivery costs, no trust issues, just what I pay for and have found some nice examples of some hard to find varieties...

Our local coin shop has a huge bowl of wheats at 4 cents each. He doesn't mind if you root around a little. When my son found five that he wanted, he just let him have them.

I think that's probably one of the best ways to get a child interested in the hobby (assuming he doesn't grow up around someone like us ). I remember a gentleman doing that for me when I was younger. I was thrilled. It was a beat up Large Cent. I thought it was the best thing in the world. That memory still makes me smile.
