    Even at my age I still get teenager giddy when I empty my pockets in the evening and spot a wheat cent. You would think a fellow would outgrow that sooner or later…. I hope I never do.

    I’m the same, Randy! I still tell the story of when I started working in the packaging industry. The break room had a bottled pop machine that would take two quarters and give a nickel back. One day I put my quarters in, selected my pop, and watched a buffalo nickel slide down into the change tray. I about peed myself.

    That’s the first time I heard that story. How perfect!

    @Randy Abercrombie, I can’t tell you what you want to hear because I feel the same excitement that you do. It helps to keep me young. :)

    Whenever I get a wheatie, I get excited...then I put it right back into circulation so that someone else will also have the same experience.
