<p>[QUOTE="Augustine1992, post: 1230169, member: 30585"]My sister works at an airport, and weird coinage comes through there A LOT, including foreign coins and old US coinage. Well today she came over and brought with her 4 wheat pennies, 3 buffalo nickels, and a mercury dime. Man I flipped a lid when she showed me the mercury dime (my second favorite coin.) She told me I could have the wheat pennies but she was keeping the rest. I even made her an offer of $15 for all the buffalos and the mercury dime and she still declined. But anyway, when she handed me the wheat pennies two of them were cleaned. I could tell right away. I asked her if she got them like this and she said no, they were really dirty and her co-workers and herself dipped them in acid. My heart sank and I quickly checked to make sure they wernt key dates or anything, which they wernt so I was relieved. This brings my wheat total up to 12. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>from left to right: 1946 D, 1947 D, 1946, and a 1944.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
