Rescued a Grand Old Lady last night

[ronbo22]

Got 2 $50 bags of pennies last night and the numbers were decent. Found 30 wheats with 1917,1934,1936 being the oldies with the rest being typical Book 2 stuff. But this old gal also came sliding out. I couldn't scan to get the date but its there "1881". Her days of supporting commerce are over and she can spend the rest of her days gracing my Indian Book.

Nice job with the indian head...

Keep hitting those pennies hard and you will be amazed at what will turn up.


Happy Hunting,
Jason

Nice find , I got my first one a few weeks ago, its an awsome feeling to pull a Indian out of the wild

I've done over 60 boxes found over 1300 wheats but no Indian, but I found one in a reject tray and when I tried buying the bag I got the good old answer.. No never the less I wasn't happy, but great job on the indian!!!
