    I haven't been hunting very long, max 2 months. I have been looking through all of the old posts on here about what you should expect to find, what you should expect to hear from the bank tellers when you ask for pennies and the only thing I haven't experienced on my own is what the tellers say when you dump your pennies. Why? I haven't dumped anything yet. I have such a limited amount of free time to search what j get that I have only been building my stash! It's exciting! I watch all of these guys on YouTube, (Blueridgesilverhound and jbcoins) got a brick of brand new 2016's and they say sell it on eBay. NO. I got a box of customer wrapped rolls with two rolls that have a '69 P on it with tape on both ends. They say open it right away. I generally try to get one box of pennies per week. $25 is t that much to spend on a bad habit I think not lol ( I quit smoking so coins are my cigarettes). Some weeks I buy bank rolls on eBay from Bank of America. If I'm not on eBay I buy boxes of pennies. To my surprise when I opened up this box of pennies I got this week it was wrapped by loomis, not new rollo (first for me) and caught my attention right away. What do you say. 2 rolls here and the rest are just as interesting. image.jpeg

    Yikes, after a closer look at them wrappers I do think they might have "PENNIES" printed on them!

    Last time I bought a box and opened it, I almost went blind from all the red 2014s. That's why i stopped buying for awhile. I probably have 100 rolls of unopened 2014s

    When you find one or two wheat enders in a box, it's usually not that big of a deal. Random chance that's going to happen every once in a while, even if you're only finding the standard say 10-12 wheats per box... Now if you found like 4 or 5 enders (or more) then I would be curious.

    Any day you open a box of cents and find a wheat cent it is a good day!

    You could probably sell them on eBay for a premium, assuming you can find a decent way of shipping them. Error collectors like to go through them.
