[QUOTE="NOS, post: 4554178, member: 2098"]A lot of these bulk wheat cent lots are comprised of coins that were sought out and removed from circulation in the 1960's and early 1970's. One way to tell with coins that were removed from this era if they haven't been heavily filtered is you will often find wheats from the 1910's that are very worn and smooth. It would make sense that these coins were allowed to freely circulate throughout the '50's but then removed in the years that followed thereafter. You can say right from the start going back over 50 years the majority of these kinds of coins have technically already been searched. With this in mind, it makes sense that these lots typically don't exhibit post-1958 cents in them like one may be initially inclined to expect. With that said, if you're curious, want to have a bit of fun, and can find some rolls that purport to be unsearched and aren't terribly expensive, go ahead and buy a few. Just don't expect to find keys or anything all that exceptional.[/QUOTE]
