    It's been a while since I got something like this in change. Digging through my wife's change purse. :angelic::rolleyes:
    Anyways, found this 1921/1925 penny. Not in the best shape but I'll take them. :woot: Maybe a buck or so in value? Anyways, here's the Pictures. Enjoy all!

    Unusual to see early ones in circulation! Just think, that '21 has been circulating for a century!

    Where on Earth does you wife get such change? Nice finds, but who gets them? You, or your wife. LOL

    My wife hands them to me as she doesn’t use a purse. But if I were you and I found coins like this in her purse, I’d be going through her purse more often. Lol

    Ah, but a 1922 is worth much more. You sure it was that date? How much of the D mintmark could you see?

    That's quite the risk VS reward.

    I save mine. The ones I find, my dad’s and some friends gifted me. Keeping for my son along with other denominations. Different people save or collect different things.
