Still searching the rolls from that large lot I got recently.

Amazing roll I just searched. It was actually short one cent which has been very unusual for these. They are usually spot on for their accuracy.

This roll had twenty-six wheat cents!!! My most ever in one roll. Nothing remarkable about the dates as they ranged from 1944 to 1958D with no S mint marks. But exciting to me. I'm having trouble holding the pennies to search today as I was put back on my nebulizer by the doctor on Friday and the medication used in it really gives me the shakes. Hard enough for me to see normally. Now add in trying to view a moving/shaking target and it really becomes a challenge. LOL

Finding the 26 wheats in the one roll has me shaking now from excitement so I am really in a pickle!!!

Continued success to everyone.

Wow.. Saw a post about a lion coin found in a nickel roll, and Year of the Tiger Silver lunar coins this weekend. Can a Bear coin post be far behind? I would put up my platinum koala.. but I read somewhere that a koala isn't really a bear.

HCBTT...Gorgeous photo! Thanks.

Searching this lot of older rolls has really been more enjoyable to me than the normal searches. Really intriguing and interesting to me. I am tossing everything I am keeping from this lot like the wheats, older Canadians, S mint marks and the one foreign coin into a two cup container thinking there would be plenty of room. There still probably will be as I think I am nearing the end of the really good possibilities of more than normal amounts of wheats and Canadian coins but I am up over the one cup mark. Wanted to keep them separate so I can try for some more photos to post when the search is completed on these rolls.

Enjoy your searches, everyone! Success to one and all!!!

HCBTT...Ding, ding, ding. You are correct. A koala isn't a bear, even though people outside of Australia do refer to them as a koala bear because they do look somewhat like a cute, cuddly bear.
