We both searched rolls bought $5 to $10 at a time while searching for halves. Dad broke the 10 wheat barrier with 11 Wheats (oldest 1934) winning the battle. Dad also managed 2 King Georges VI, and his dime streak ended. Tanner lost the battle but found 2 cents for our "Found in the Wild Book" We are lucky to fill one hole every 2 months. Tanner found 9 Wheats (oldest 1935s) and 6 common wheats. The 1935s and a 1939s were both needed for our book.
Congrats to dad!
So do you guys count a KGVI penny as a wheat, in terms of a score?

I attached a new copy of the "Wheat Wars" spreadsheet to this post.
1/100 of an American dollar is a cent. It is NOT a penny. The word penny is used by several other countries, such as Great Britain, to denote their smallest denomination. In order to be numismatically correct, you must use the term cent to describe the American coin.

Seems Tanner is way ahead! That was very considerate of you Sagittarius98 to create the "battle" stats.

I knew that no one tracked them, so I thought I would do it. Battle 15 has question marks because it was most likely skipped, meaning this battle is truly #65. I counted just wheats, no IH.

Battle 15 is a lost episode. That was way back when before I used the printer to post our finds. Dad and Tanner
We will never know what happened at the episode 15 of 1st season. I bet there were hundreds of IH and a petty pile of flying eagles found
Keep up the battles, I enjoy watching the resluts
