<p>[QUOTE=&quot;silentnviolent, post: 1431769, member: 8797&quot;]Where to begin? I got &quot;approx. 300 wheat cents, some indian and steel&quot; for about $25 shipped. They arrived today, just as I was taking my son to the library where there is a large play area for small children in the basement. I took them with. I could not resist temptation (there were some playmates for him today) and I opened them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Upon cursory exam, I was happy to find a 27 D in AU and tucked it safely (I thought) into a flap in my wallet. I picked out the other really BU quality ones, as well as a 21, and put them in my empty pocket, then repacked the rest. I was happy <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I came home and took care of the regular house stuff before getting back to the wheats. I was going to take a pic for you guys, but alas, my wallet had no coinage. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />acing:&nbsp; Frantic, I removed everything from my wallet, emptied my pockets, checked the car; nothing. Now I&#039;m very sad <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; I morosely began picking through the remnants&nbsp; of my shattered morale, and with it, the rest of the wheats. I had this glimmer of hope that, even though I know I&#039;d put A penny in my wallet, perhaps I&#039;d tucked away the wrong one. :sniper: Imagine my suprise when good ole Abe winked at me with this beauty! The numismatic Gods hath smiled upon me....&nbsp; :bow:&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I think it&#039;s a solid 45... How about you?</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; And WHEN I find the 27 D, I WILL post it...&nbsp;&nbsp; but this sure took the sting out!!&nbsp;&nbsp; :cheers:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
