<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 1781537, member: 12789&quot;]I went into my bank during my work errands this morning, as I was waiting in line an older lady came in with a coffee can full of neatly wrapped cents - she had been holding onto them for awhile.&nbsp; She ended up having $23 worth - sold them to the teller who winked at me like &quot;their yours for the taking&quot; and I bought them when she left.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The rolls were heavier than normal for a CWR with zinc, so I figured there must be a lot of bronze - bonus - and sure enough there was.&nbsp; The latest date in the whole bunch was 1983.&nbsp; I found several wheats scattered through the rolls and then near the end of the 46 rolls I opened up a roll and 49 of the little darling wheats rolled out along with curiously a 1983 cent.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The wheats were the bomb:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>1916</p><p>1919</p><p>1920</p><p>1925</p><p>1926</p><p>1930</p><p>1935</p><p>1936</p><p>1937 X 3</p><p>1939 X 2</p><p>1940 X 2</p><p>a 1940-S</p><p>1944-S</p><p>1947-S</p><p>1949-S</p><p>1952-S</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And 42 more coins from 1941-58</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Also with the requisite neighbours from the Ice Box:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Canada GVI 1943, 1947ML 1951</p><p>and 11 YH QEII.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I ended up buying a box of BWR cents and nickels, the cents were ho-hum.&nbsp; The nickels produced a dateless buffer, a 1939, a 1944-P and a 1945-P and some 20 or so pre-1960 dates.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
