[QUOTE="coingirl, post: 698863, member: 20322"]I have almost filled my Eisenhower dollars, almost filled my Kennedy book, there are several Indian heads I need (about 26) but I've found all of my coins through searching rolls of coins at the local banks. We don't have a coin dealer where I live, I'm in rural upstate NY...but I would not know what a fair price would be, so I would not be comfortable with that yet either. My question was just general, I have over 200 wheats and my eyes are not what they used to be so reading the date is somewhat difficult, I thought if it was ok to clean them I would, but I have no problem leaving them alone... I purchase bricks of pennies every two weeks, depending on my mood, around $100.00 worth, from that I usually get about 30-50 wheats, I've seldom pulled less than that, it is a pleasure when I run across the occasional indian head, but all that I own I own because of searching this way.
