<p>[QUOTE="Wheatcent41, post: 918916, member: 19294"]Thanks, and yes it was a blast. In fact, it still is. A bag back then would be loaded with pre '40 coins. Granted, key dates were seldom found but I did find a few. In fact, I found a 1909-S VDB but it had serious damage from being ran over by a car or two. It's just a filler at best. Coins like 1909's and '09 VDB's were so common they didn't rate a second look other than making sure it wasn't an S-mint. 1922-D's were no big deal either. 10,11,12,13,14 S-mints were worth a couple bucks in Good. About six months ago I was in a coin shop and asked the guy if he had a used Gray Sheet Supplement I could have. I wanted to see what the wheats were going for these days. I was in shock! Thirty bucks for a '15-S? A dollar for a 16,17,18 -D in Good? It was like, you have got to be kidding me! My ship has come in! Holy cow.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
