| The Wells Fargo bank that I started 2 weeks ago has been very nice in saving coins for me. Will wait before I see if they will order coins in for me. |

Most common date still not found is 1917D with a mintage of 55 million.
Then it jumps to 1930D with a mintage of 40 million. Quick progress. |

| I found a 1910, 1916 and a 1923 in the same roll last night. The 1910 is readable, but the coin is not in very good shape. |

I think the contest should be who fills the book first on their own. Excluding the major dates of course
Also, can ryedale sorters get in on this tracking post? |

1939 last night..
....Question on the semi key date...shouldn't the 1931 semikey be a S mint instead of the philly mint? even the D mint has lower production numbers than the plain cent. I would really like to stay on as a semikey finder but that means I have to go find that penny again and put it in a flip...at least..;-) |

| I found a 1912-D last night; not an IH but still the oldest coin I've ever found in circulation! It was a decent G-4 problem-free coin. Beat the heck out of the corroded example in my whitman folder. Still waiting for the wild indian to show up on my doorstep... |

Yes, the 1931D and 1931S are better dates than a 1931 plain. But no one has found one and reported it here yet. That's why they're not listed in the key/semi-key section. For the time being, I am defining key/semi-key as coins with mintages below 20 million, plus the 1909VDB which has an abnormally high value for its mintage. This is that list:
1909VDB 1945v
1909SVDB
1909S
1910S snappy
1911D
1911S
1912D
1912S
1913D
1913S
1914D snappy
1914S
1915S
1921S
1922D coinwolf
1923S cwgii
1924D
1924S
1926S
1927S thogey
1928S cwgii
1931P fasteddy, kirkland
1931D
1931S
1932P
1932D
1933P
1933D
1938S beauanderos
1939D
Your 1931 plain has a mintage of 19,396,000, so it qualifies. The problem is that there is no EASY way to define the terms. Using the coins' "price" or "value" makes it necessary to determine a grade on EVERY coin found, then ALSO to decide which source to trust for that value. And values CHANGE over time. There are just too many variables there. So I used something definable and unchanging: mintage figures. Actually, all the coins with numismedia.com values over $3 have mintages under 13 million, except for the 1909VDB with a mintage of 28 million and a G4 value of $9. That would still qualify as a semi-key, don't you think?
So for now, the cutoff is at 20 million. If we adjust it, we may go to 13 or 15 million. But I was going to wait until we got at least a few more before we cut it back. |

teens:
'19s, 19d, 18p, 17p, 17d, 11d, 19p, 11p, '10, 14p,
twenties:

Job, that adds five new ones to the found side.
Now we're at 60 found out of 86, which is almost 70%. |

I'm a gonna have to train you on the finer points of easily opening rolls the next time we get together. Those Brinks wraps are very easy to open without sharp objects.  |
If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.
