<p>[QUOTE=&quot;windwalker, post: 1676905, member: 38923&quot;]I&#039;ve been able to put together over 2,000 wheats.&nbsp; I&#039;ve place them into used pill bottles (300 to a bottle).&nbsp; Eventually, I will be going back and sorting them out in some fashion - most likely by decade.&nbsp; I know that I have quite a few of them from the &#039;40&#039;s and &#039;50&#039;s, but there is also quite a few of them from the teens and &#039;20&#039;s. </p><p><br /></p><p>Although I do do roll searching and keep all of copper coins that I come accross, I really don&#039;t have any expectation of being able to do something with the ones that I do have (wheat backed being a possible exception) I do see that the copper pennies are getting harder to come upon.&nbsp; When I started out I was averaging 40+% now I&#039;m down to 22%.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The copper pennies go into a 55 gallon drum from the kids to figure out what to do with them.&nbsp; Right now it&#039;s about half way filled and I don&#039;t have any idea as to either how many are in the drum nor what the weight is.&nbsp; I just labeled the drum and they know it for them.</p><p><br /></p><p>However the wheats are all for me.&nbsp; I have a short term goal of keeping the wheats until I find a 1909s vdb.&nbsp; It does look like I&#039;m going to be at it for quite awhile now.&nbsp; I used to have 6 of those coins when I was younger but they disappeared while I was in the service.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
