Holy Guacamole, found a Lincoln KEY!!!!

I was at my local coin shop today buying some coins for my dansco 7070 album and my guy has a bucket of "unsearched" lincoln cents that he keeps on the back shelf. He sells baggies of 400 wheaties for $25 plus you get a hand full out of the bucket. I've purchased some before, and grabbed a hand full of coins, which comes out to somewhere between 350 and 450 in a hand full. (yes, I have big hands). So I bought a bag today, and was sitting here at home sifting through it finding mostly 40's and 50's. Go figure, I've never had good luck doing this and when I was about 80% of the way through the bag I came across this 31s. HOLY COW!!!! I was shocked. I may have to go buy another bag!!!!!!

I graded it somewhere between vf/xf.
