Cent box finds tonight.

Found 25 wheat cents tonight all 1944-1958. But I really like these 1974s cents. They are sure beautiful.

I got a nice looking 1916D today, goes good with last weeks 1916s. How many rolls did you go through to get them? I get about 15-17 per box.

 

Nice finds!

 

I searched 25 rolls. this is the most i have gotten in awhile. This was the first bank i ever got a box from years ago, so i guess i should keep with them. I should have been studying though. Lol

 

25 Wheats in 25 Rolls, wow. You must be in a good area. I haven't had that kind of luck here in many years. Nice Finds.

 

Of the 25 at least 7 rolls had two wheats in the roll and one of the rolls had back to back wheats that was cool.

 

What should you have been studying?

 

I'm studying Criminal justice. I have 24 hours before I graduate. Not bad for working full time as a park ranger and being 40.

 

I'm 42 and seriously thinking about going back to school with a focus on American History. I've been in the IT industry for 20 years and have come to the realization that I hate supporting technology

 

My university gives me grants and scholarships because I'm not your teen typical college student and that really helps. The way figure it as much as I love being a park ranger the economy may not always allow for parks and rec. But crime will always have a need for those professionals. American history and coins go hand in hand so why not.

 

I have a History degree...If i did write the occasional book, my degree would be worthless.

 

@Amos 811 - what books have you written

@Miketexas - sorry for hijacking the thread...last question I'll ask that's not on topic LOL

 

mostly Middle Eastern history books... it goes against site rules to say anything about religion or politics, and i am glad

 

I also have a History degree. I have worked in retail and residential construction my whole career. But I don't regret getting my degree. I think it was time well spent.

 

Any 1972 minor double dies?

 

i have a pile i have to check. I did get a 2009 British penny in a roll today...odd.

 

Cool finds I got a box of pennies and got nothing because they were the same coins I looked throughout 2 weeks ago

 

I always buy my box coins at one bank and dump the coins after searching either at coin star because it's not that much for cents or another bank. That way your never researching your old coins.

 

Yeah

i usually go to one bank but I tried a different branch(the main one) and apparently they ship your coins to the main bank to get put in your account so I got all the same ones

 

I mark my rolls with a sharpie so I don't have to worry about that.
