[QUOTE="clembo, post: 221554, member: 8033"]I have never really "liked" wheaties but still have at least 5000 of them. A deal is a deal I say. Many of mine were pulled from circulation - my best finds being an 11-S and 14-S. I have also picked up multiples of th 10-S through 15-S as well as 22-D and 24-D when the price was right. As for the Rodney syndrome it's all too true but I feel it will change eventually. In years past I made it a point to purchase the OVER rated VDB as well as the under rated dates of 23-S, 31-D, 32, 32-D and 33. I would go through my local dealers mountain of Whitmans and yank these out and buy in lots. Might pay up to 50 cents a coin but found A LOT of VF and XF coins in there. These coins have gone up and will continue to I believe and I don't have a lot tied up in them so it's not a big deal. I DID just spend the most I've ever spent on a wheat but couldn't pass it up. 1914-D ANACS F15 for $225. I actually LIKE that coin and will keep it for a long time. I'm getting windy here but wheaties are also fun for RPMs etc as stated by another member. I just opened a roll of 1956 this week and have already found a BIE error and a clogged 9. That was in the first 5 coins. Geez, now that I look back on this post I guess I like wheaties more than I thought![/QUOTE]
