So I can't post any pictures because I sure didn't bring the camera to work, but I just got a 1926-S penny back from my $2.36 chicken noodle soup! I can't wait to get home and post the pictures!

Yea it's in bad shape, but still one heck of a find! Since I've only been paying attention to my pocket change for about 2 months now, this is my best find to date!

Even in Good-4, that is still a $7 - $8 item. Nice find!

It is indeed a nice find that semi-key date had great potential. 26S is the 11th least minted Wheat cent. Great find from change!

Cool score! I'm happy to get any Wheat cent back in change, let alone a semi-key date!

Nice find! I think my best wheat find in change was a 1939 from the gas station.

No disrespect intended ....... and we do appreciate the photo ......

But that photo is a blob filled with some kind of textured background!

Crop .... enlarge .... whatever is needed .... but the goal is to
make the coin visible ......

Hopefully one of the talented CCF folks will come by and 'help'.
