A Yeoman Red Book allows you to do several things with your wheat collection. It will help you learn how to grade wheats, it has a grading guide at the beginning of the wheat section. It has mintage information for all wheats. But, 2nd most importantly for your wheat collection, and what will answer your question best...you can look at the values listed and tell which dates are more valuable. Yes, 1922 no mint mark. Yes, 1914D...and so on for all the dates you have.

During this process, the most important thing that happens is you learn. You are then able to do things for yourself.

Hi Carl..... I have helped several friends liquidate large quantities of old wheat cents that like yourself, didn't care to sort them. You can generally sell them in bulk from .03 to .05 cents each. If your dealer doesn't want them, I am sure they would get snatched up quickly on Ebay.

Thank you. I'll ponder that!

I have a decent sized collection.

Is there any one ( or more ) that would be a valuable find?
I do not have the 1922 no mint penny but a lot of coins starting from 1911 going through 1958.
A few are S mints as well.
Of course i am looking forward to one day sell these coins so any info on that would be extremely helpful as well.
Any coin book title that you trust for accurate info and value?
Anywhere on the net to search for information?
But please do not tell me to check Esty site... Every coin on there is priced to the extreme and they look worse than any of my coins.
So many scams its hard to feel comfortable with info found on the net.
Thanks so much

I have the usual childhood collections of hundreds of pennies and nickels going back to 1909. I've sold the Indian head nickels and the most sought-after Jefferson nickels (1942-1945 large format mint mark) to a local shop but the guy does not want to see my pennies and other nickels. Are there wholesalers out there? My two grandkids are not interested in inheriting them. Some are in fair-to-good condition, the majority in average or poor (but date readable) condition. Any suggestions? I'm in Boston with little patience for investigating the value of every penny. Thanks!

@Carl Zukroff Another outlet may be to give them to a Scout troop or similar organization.
