should I keep my box of wheat pennies?

All of the years are years I already have in my wheat penny books. I have one of each year saved.

Heck, every time I get a Wheat cent I still chuck it back into a jar. I think they're cool.

 

You left out one option in your poll.........

"It depends on how much I'm offered!"

I have two bags that both have over 5000 each. They started out as normal bags, and I keep adding to them. I am with Tom, I still pull any wheat cent and keep them.

 

Unless you have searched them thoroughly, I would save them. If your sure you've found all varieties, then dump them to someone who buys wheat cents.

 

Yeah I was wondering if I should sell it and get something elts.
Chris you do a good job at telling people what answer choice they should have included in polls, but that's not a bad thing.

 

Trade 'em in for something you don't already have.

 

Yeah that's what I was thinking I could do, but I'm sorta leaving it up to you guys.

 

This is why I asked the question. To know if I should get something better.

 

Just sell them to me!

 

There all in rolls and the rolls are labeled 50s 40s or 30s and before.

 

Now you've got my attention!! send a post.

 

You could keep them in an empty Wheaties box. Breakfast of Champions. I don't really get it. 50 years from now will people be hoarding Memmies? Or just the pre-1982 ones? Wait, that's right. 50 years from now the zinc ones will be piles of oxidized metal.

 

I Love the 30's and befores!!!!

Why not post a few examples of the better earliest ones...and I'm sure a few of us would PM you to see if we can reach an understanding and a deal.

 

You should first check them foe variety coins.

 

Keep 'em in a wine jug (like I do) when you come of age........

 

OK....two wine jugs.

 

Oh sorry my last roll of 30s and before and it's not all 30s and before it has 9 steal ones, twenty 30s and older and the others 21 are 40s and 50s. Ok that's one roll.

Amount of 40s rolls 8
Amount of 50s rolls 11
Amount of mixed 40s and 50s rolls 2

 

Have you done what Paddy mentions???

 

Variety coins are those key dates?
If so I have already checked.
