<p>[QUOTE="bqcoins, post: 528434, member: 5036"]I finally went through I guess close to 10,200 wheaties these last two days. I got them "unsearched" in a bucket from a dealer friend. He'd been saving them up for over a year as they came into the store and finally talked me into taking them off his hands. I was skeptical at first whether or not these were going to be truly unsearched wheats, but he has never lied to me before, and in buying bags of 400 to 800 unsearched cents from him I've found a couple of doozies to include a 31-S. So I thought why not. It took about 8 full hours to go through separate, catalog, and etc. And now what a haul!! I managed to find at least two of every date/mm except for the 1909 s vdb (I knew that), the 14-d (knew that too), the 31-s (kinda figured), and the 31-d (now that one surprised me). After all was said and done I ended up finding the following key dates/better condition coins:</p><p>2 1909 in XF</p><p>10 1909 VDB ranging from G to XF</p><p>1 1909-S in VG with environmental damage, but still an 09-S!</p><p>1 1910 in AU</p><p>3 1910-S</p><p>4 1911-D</p><p>1 1911-S in F</p><p>2 1912-D</p><p>2 1912-S</p><p>2 1913-S</p><p>1 1914-S</p><p>2 1915-S</p><p>1 1917 in AU</p><p>3 1922-D in F</p><p>7 1924-D 1 in VG,1 in F,4 in VF and 1 in XF</p><p>1 1924-S in XF</p><p>1 1926-D in XF</p><p>6 1933-D in VF or higher</p><p>not to mention all the 32d coins all over the spectrum and the piles of 43's everywhere I turned and some odd colored cents that all looked like they had been sandblasted and dyed pink, luckily those were all 40's and 50's cents.
