[QUOTE="Spark1951, post: 8666454, member: 90692"]In a related effort of late, my previous task was 79 coins sent to me from my younger son Douglas (he’s 42) who is the Executive Chef for a Seafood restaurant on Whidbey Island in Washington State. My son was helping a friend clean out a storage section of a friends’ garage and found the coins in a cubby hole. The newest coin was a 1984 cent and no, it was not a doubled ear. Among those conserved or relegated to the safety of a flip was a 1917 G4 wheat. There is only one variety listed at Wexler, and if this coin ever had doubling it had been obliterated by wear. Out of the 79 coins I put 37 in flips and I am sending all 79 coins back to my son to give back to his friend…it took me about 2 weeks to check them all. I had a blast checking all of these. I told my son that if I found anything of value I would send them back so his friend could keep them, I mean, after all, they were his coins in the first place. I got all the fun discovering what was there. …Spark[/QUOTE]
