Message:: [QUOTE="micheldura2, post: 1105598, member: 18966"]Well, there is more information too..here~ Limited quantity, once they are gone, they're gone! A sales rep from a national liquidation company that manages troubled financial institution assets contacted us with a rather unique find.  His asset management team came across a limited quantity of sealed teller boxes containing various wheat cents in one of the branches and this might be a unique opportunity to salvage more funds for the company and pay off debt.  He brought us several boxes to look through and I must say- it was quite a find. The pennies we went through ranged from early Indian Heads all the way up to the late 50's- hitting every decade on the way. In all, I pulled out 9 Indian head pennies, one of which I ended up selling at a coin show for $114. The boxes also yielded a diverse mix of wheat cents ranging from 1909 up to 1958 with a good variety of mint marks.  They had to ensure to us all of the pennies were wheaties.  They broke the seal and opened 30 various teller penny boxes from the lot at random, choosing random serial numbers that ranged from the lowest through the highest to authenticate they were wheat pennies. His company policy required all of the assets being liquidated and sold in auction format so he solicited several coin dealers and asked for bids.  We, of course, were the most interested and paid up the most for them because we know their potential. <img src="http://www.upstatecoins.com/v/ebaypics/P1020136.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> Sequentially numbered with tamper-proof security labels, each box has the branch's unique inventory code on it to ensure they weren't tampered with.  Most of these security tabs are even initialed by the bank employees that sealed them.[/QUOTE]
