    I recently acquired about 75lbs of wheat cents. I hope to have time to search these!

    Where did you come across a hoard like that?

    Hopefully there's some early ones in there, not just 40s and 50s. :cool:

    LakeEffect Average Circulated

    Fortunately, I always carry a calculator on my belt. :):rolleyes:

    There's 453.6 grams per pound ... a wheatie weighs about 3.11 grams ... so there's almost 146 wheatie's per pound.

    Your pup looks disinterested. Perhaps trade a few pounds of wheats for some Scooby Snacks and he will chip in and help!
