[QUOTE="Kurisu, post: 8475869, member: 117063"]Well you've got about 10 years on me and my collecting :joyful: I've been saying for years that I would love to find out the actual numbers of these Sac pattern coins and to find out if there are some little hoards out there lol. I've also been asking around for years, including in some forums and shows to see if I can find someone who was actually involved in the coin packaging at General Mills HQ back in the day. Because it sure sounds like a bunch of the office staff were involved in vacuum packing both the dollars and the Cheerios pennies. My gut tells me that there are some really fun stories to uncover as well as some stashes...I picture some office staff smoking cigarettes and bare-handed packaging these coins lol!!! I don't own any Cheerios dollars but I do have a few really nice original Cheerios pennies (unfortunately not the one I got myself from the box) and my favorite is this one...which apparently has the fingerprints from some clerk or someone who was packaging the pennies at General Mills lol! Hey [USER=90596]@dennis5151[/USER] see if you can figure out who the heck touched my Cheerios penny?! :hilarious: [ATTACH=full]1501171[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1501170[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]1501168[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
