    I have not purchased in about 3-4 months besides what I just purchased for the United States mint. Now I want to buy a bag of wheaties is there any decent companies that are selling bags of Wheaties? Preferably truly on searched and I know that's a gimmick

    How do I win the contest? Actually I see adverts on Craigslist for wheaties often.

    Actually I have bought several things through Craigslist, and if you are careful, there can be great deals. Not too many people are going to scam for wheat cents.

    Yeah, but coin collectors are crazy and odd don't you think? Just a little? Maybe>>>> (Don't hit me, I'm old).

    Yeah, but coin collectors are not likely to be selling. The people selling are the ones who probably haven't bothered to look through them.

    I doubt that there are more than three truly unsearched rolls of wheat cents left in the world, and they are all on sale on eBay and etsy with guarantees of being unsearched and found in the seller's great grandfather's old army chest.

    If I were wanting a bag, I would check local shops first if that's possible. Shipping is high on these. I forgot but they weigh something like 35 to 40 pounds.
    Chances of finding any key dates is slim but the search can be fun. Great way to build an album set from the best coins. It's also a really good way to learn how to grade Lincoln's. After picking the best from 5000 coins, you have a good understanding on how to grade them.
