I got some rolls of pennies from the bank some have wheat pennies as one of the face pennies.
are these worth keeping as a roll of coins with a wheat penny showing as one of the face pennies?
Or just open them up and get the wheat by itself?
thanks alot!

it's not exactly rare. I might find one like that per 100 rolls or soemthing.
you could probbably hawk it off on ebay as "unsearched old roll" or some bullsxxt like that and someone would buy it. |

Welcome to the forum! Are you a penny sorter/hoarder?
You might be able to sell it for a little more on ebay, but the fees with eat your profit! I would just open it and see what you have. |

| Open them, and tell the rest of us what is inside. Then go back to that bank and buy all the rest of their rolls. You may have come across a vein of old pennies being dumped. If you live near a fellow member with an automatic rolling machine, they can roll them back up for you with wheats on the ends. |
If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.

Welcome. I say open 'em.
Deal |
Live free or die.
Plain and simple.
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your council or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."
