    Post below the pennies you have found in circulation that are your favorites. It doesn't matter if they were found in change or roll searching. Gems, IHC's, or weird die varieties are welcome! I'll start:

    1903 IHC.
    1974D Gem.

    (I'll get some pics up later!)

    Everyone already knows my best one was the 1988 D reverse 89 mule I found roll searching. But lately, I have made some nice grabs of MS coins from CWRs ? It seems people are actually cashing in the old penny stash or coin jar ? Even found a 1902 IHC in a roll recently.

    I found an F-12 1909 vdb. I don't have pictures though as I gave it to my dad.

    1903 Indian Head found yesterday in a roll. My oldest circulation find so far. Nice 82 ziggy9! I've been looking for one of those since I started.
