<p>[QUOTE="Coinlover, post: 266911, member: 6032"]i have about 1400 wheat cents. i used to keep them in a burlap sack, but rolled them up and put them in my safe. there just common date wheat cents, but if something happens to them, that would be bad. i feel much safer having them locked up. somtimes i wonder, if we got all the cents that are in circualtion right now, how many wheats would there be? how many flying eagles and ihc? wheat cents are what got me started. i amit, i still buy rolls of wheat cents when i get them. i save them from change. i don't have the heart to spend one. what if it dosn't get to a collector? what if its destroyed? i'd rather have it in my safe. just a few days ago i was looking in my moms change and found a 1956D wheat in EF to AU condition. another time i found a uncirculaed 1955 in circulation. its just crazy that someone would put it in a roll without second thought. our school had a cent drive for a charity. i told my dad about it, and he said i'll call the school to see if we can buy the cents from them. they said they already dumped them into a bank. i still to this day wonder and wonder how many wheat cents went into that bank that could have gone into my collection. they had about $900 in cents. my dad would have bought them, we could have gone through them and find all the wheats. now they are just wearing away into nothing. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
