Message:: [QUOTE="davedawg, post: 328428, member: 9026"]I collect them all, especially Lincoln Wheat Cents. I get some pretty strange looks from people when I go sifting through the "take a penny, leave a penny" bin as I'm waiting for my change! I usually throw a nickel or dime in there and just grab all the cents out of the tray. Love looking for DDO's and RPM's, never had any luck yet with OMM's or DDR's. Most of the coins I look through (for example, a 5000 count bag of 1930's wheaties) are sometimes too worn or, for lack of the correct term, flattened out that I can't tell if it is actually "extra thickness on the outer devices", which most Wheat DDR's exhibit, or if it's from just plain old and worn out. Same with the RPM's. It's fun looking though, I have about 25,000 wheaties that I am sorting first by decade, then by year, then by mint, and then I will make full rolls out of them. It's gonna take me a loooonnnnnnnngggggggg time, but it's fun. I've found over a dozen 1936 DDO's and possibly some others from different dates. Anyway, that's my thing.[/QUOTE]
