<p>[QUOTE=&quot;White Ger. Shep. Lover, post: 3976120, member: 108450&quot;]Good hunting, Mr. Wapelhorst.&nbsp;&nbsp; When you initially come across an extremely worn cent in the wild, where you can tell it&#039;s most likely pre-1930, it&#039;s been my experience that a 1919 is your most likely find, with 1920 being next in prominence.&nbsp;&nbsp; When you do discover one of these well worn wonders, you cannot help but ponder the possibility that your coin may have been traveling from pocket to pocket for an entire century without being corralled .&nbsp; What are the odds?&nbsp; I would imagine that a typical life of a ragged 1919 cent would have been that it spent it&#039;s first 40 years traveling around from place to place like a wandering hobo.&nbsp; Then in the early 70&#039;s being plucked out of circulation by some grade schooler, to put in his &quot;penny&quot; book.&nbsp; Then maybe 10-20 years later it&#039;s returned to the wild for possibly a myriad of different reasons, where it once again becomes quite the jet setter.&nbsp; Then maybe a decade later it ends up in a huge jug , smack dab in the middle with thousands of it&#039;s fellow buddies.&nbsp; Then a few years after that, it&#039;s poured into a huge machine,&nbsp; where it&#039;s hastily spit out in a plastic bag.&nbsp;&nbsp; Then soon after that it&#039;s time to hit the road once again, until one day years later,&nbsp; where it&#039;s thrown into a box along with thousands of his pals, all born before 1959 too.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
