Rescued this unfortunate Wheat Penny

Looks like a car ran over it, doesn't it? I'm amazed that it's 2014 and we can still find these in change.

Still has a lot of good detail left, especially in the wheat stalks.

 

I hope you didn't look at it as if it was a lost kitten like I do. "It's ok now little guy, you're going home to be safe with me."

 

LOL @StashTreasure, we are a sick bunch, I totally do that..."here, let's give you a nice acitone bath, get you all kween, the wrap you up until a nice comfy 2×2!"

Sick, I tell yah, sick.

 

If I'm sick thank god there is no cure. XD

 

Yup safe and soon to be rolled up with 50 of his friends

 

Holy cow! An S coin! I always get all happy when I find an S coin! Last one I found was a 1941S nickel onthe floor in a locker room! Big happy!

 

49*

 

I thought I was the only person who did that. I saved a Lincoln cent just yesterday.

 

And if nothing else it has more then face value in copper in it. I pull all my copper cents out of my change tho God knows why

 

That's finally something I gave up...I was an addict on the coppers (except for the wheats)...finally dumped'em all back into my big glass piggy! now it looks like a lesson in Geology...bottom layer of silver and brown, middle layer of brown only...and a top layer forming of silver and brown again.

I figured, if nothing else, it was a compulsion I didn't have to give into anymore, one less thing to worry about..., if I want them back then there they are...in the middle layer of the big piggy.

 

Geography?

 

@bdunnse you beat me to my edit....saw that and thought..."wrong!"
