TenBears,
Setting all of the back and forth jabs aside, I feel for you that you have not yet found your first indian. That said, I appreciate your humor. You literally make me LOL [/quote]
I feel for all of you delusional cultists as well. In fact, I have more than my fair share of guilt for not yet coming up with a cure for your disease. By the way, thanks for coming up with even a bigger and fatter zero than the one I found; right in the middle of your LOL. Number of wild indians imagined by TenBears, much less found -- O |

A big fat goose egg from me. Not a single one so far. But I am still new to this and have faith. Lots of dimes though. |

I think Misterman may still be a Rational Thinker as well. He hasn't checked in yet for the list. |

I'm truly sorry, Tenbears. I have been a long time member of the Rational Thinkers organization till last night. I made a quick stop at the local bank looking for CWR's, but only got 2 Brinks boxes. I did my regular Cu sort and then my Zinc re-sort which my 5 year old son loves because the old wheat pennies fall into the reject bucket. About half way through my son asks "what is this one daddy". Wild indian caught by 5 year old boy, LOL. It was a 1906 in really good condition, and I didn't even have to do the dance. So that is one for me. |
When my wife got after me it sounded like "Blah,Blah,Blah", but now it sounds like "Clink,Clink,Clink". Its amazing what that Ryedale can do for a hounded husband. |

And or course there are those, equally eminent, who believe the market is on the eve of the “biggest and strongest economic boom in history.” There is only one thing to worry about in those words. They have been used before. On the eve of the day when the bubble burst. (Max Morgan Witts and Gorden Thomas) |

Put me down for one.
I bought a hoard of old rolls and opened a few this year and got one Indian.
A lot are Canadian rolls of BU coins from 1964-1968.
Legacypac has seen the hoard. It's kind I cool I have only opened a few there is maybe 75 to 100 rolls of 60s era coinage not searched. I really just hate to open the rolls, Maybe this winter.

Yes I saw these rolls - and you got a great deal on them. They have been out of circulation since that feathered liberty was still a young maiden. |

I had 0 Indians before I started hoarding coppers and I have never bought one. Also I don't even remember seeing one in a CWR before so most or all of mine are from machine wrapped rolls. So they are as wild as wild can be.
Based on volume of pennies sorted, I am 99% sure that there are a few that have found more than me. They just haven't posted.
Anyhow, I just happen to be lucky enough to live in an area with a high copper percentage and "lucky" enough to have sorted through 3,250,000 pennies and counting. |
