72 wheat pennies(best was 6 in 1 roll)
1927 clipped planchet
an odd '84(will post pics later)
a 2003 cent with a MAJOR grease strike through problem(wondering if this has value, don't say anything until I get pics up)

Wow...really nice finds. Personally I don't have the experince to know if it has value but I can tell you that I like coins like that and I'd buy it if I so something unique like that at a show.

Very cool finds. I've got over $200 of cents to look through but I never seem to find the time since the weather turned so nice.
Plus, I'm spending time here in CCF instead of searching.

Those are some great finds. The '84 looks like a gas bubble trail to me. John1  |

Not a die crack on the '84. Looks like a die gouge to me. I could be wrong though. Definitely not a crack though.
Very nice box!

The 2003 would have been cool but someone wrote all over the back of it with a pen!!   Nice finds for a couple of boxes. |

If that 1984 die crack goes all the way across the coin, I would say it might be a Retained Cud. |

it gets REALLY faint, but it may go all the way across.
