    I haven't been on here in a looooooong time, but I got a 1999 wide AM Friday in change at the cafeteria and wanted to share. I had to come home and take a closer look and unless I'm blind or seriously misinformed, this is one. I dont have my scanner connected to this laptop yet so for now all i have is a pic from my phone. You may or may not be able to tell :hail: 1999wide.jpg

    Can't really tell, pic is blurry, but sure looks like one. Congrats, I also found one (My second) a few days ago. Not as nice as that one, I don't think.

    Find a 2000 and make a little set. I've got several '98's and '00's... just need that '96 now and I'll be set.

    Really cool find! Congrats.

    These are very tough compared to the 1998 and 2000 coins but all it really takes is some dedication and perserverance.

    Great luck there and nice "diamond in the rough". I need that date for my set too, I'm envious!

    The two I've found took approximately 350,000 cents to find.

    That's only 70 bags, or 140 boxes. :)

    yeah, i have looked through thousands of pennies. use to go to the bank and get boxes of $25 worth to search. funny how i would find it in 53 cents change from lunch
