I just had a great box which netted me about 30 pre-1940 wheats in addition to over 100 other wheat pennies. I noticed that a few of you have had similar experiences. Enjoy them while they are still around.
Anyway, my pre-1940s for the first half of March are:
(2) 1910s (2) 1917s (2) 1918s (1) 1919 (1) 1924 (1) 1926 (2) 1928s (1) 1929 (2) 1930s (2) 1935s (1) 1935D (7) 1936s (2) 1937s (2) 1938s (7) 1939s |

I am only able to sort by hand 15 - 20 rolls at a time. But I did find a very clean 1916 S in VG condition. Yeah!

1926 1935D 1939
Not for this thread, but best find was a 1960 small date. Saw it starting at me in the top of the Ryedale hopper!
Follow up to earlier mention on a buddy's find. Out of $100 worth of BWR (stored in a tied off bag in the vault of a small town bank), he found 500+ wheats & 2 Indians - 84 of the wheats would qualify for this thread. These were just ones he found while cracking open rolls and feeding the Ryedale (while watching the zinc box), I'm sure he found a lot more yesterday when he sorted through the copper catch. Bag yielded way over 50% copper.... I guess that's pretty much a penny dream bag! (Maybe I should go buy all their nickels...? lol) |

In the past few weeks I've gotten a 1911, 1914, 1919, 1929S, 1935, and 1937. The 1911 is in pretty good shape for floating around for 99 years, I come across many 2000s cents in much worse condition. |
