jeffatNJC Valued Member United States 70 Posts	Posted 05/10/2011 12:43 am This weekend when I got home from Wal Mart I threw my change up on the counter and noticed right off there was a copper penny that looked out of place. Turns out it was a 1954 Wheat penny that goes AU-50 or better. I guess it does pay to shop at Wal Mart. Report this Post to the Staff

It looks like this fantastic, growing, recovering, wonderful economic recovery we find ourselves blessed with at present is forcing people to get into the older coins they had stashed in the closet!
