Hey all,
Just completed a box of pennies I picked up on 12/16/06. Took a lot longer this time, as each and every penny received magnifying glass scrutiny to detect errors or type II's.
Here's the results -
Wheaties: 11 (1928 1941 1944D 1945D 1946 1950 1951D 1952D 1957Dx3)
Copper: (1959-1981): 605
Errors: 17 (1978D filled-in 'D', 1984 several delamination errors, several die cracks, one penny with numerous zinc eruptions thru the copper plating, one with a large blob of copper obscuring most of the 'N' in the word 'ONE' on the reverse of a 1987)
Foreign - 63 Canadian (including 1940 King George), and a 2002 2 Euro cent coin from Germany.
Type II's - none.
No time right now to post pics; I'll try to get them added to this post later.
Good luck and HH,
Bob
