I actually found this back in June or July, just now getting around to posting( I don't post that often). I hadn't done any CRHing for a while but still had a couple boxes on the floor of my bedroom. Got one out and found this gem. A 1912 s with a mintage of only 4,431,000. I was more excited about this than the IH I found three years ago.

Wow! Awesome find. Any early mintmarked coin is tough - especially S-mints. Sweet!

Nice Find, I found a 1912-S in EF condition a few years back. I used to search pennies on the previous high copper price years. I don't search pennies anymore but when I did, that was my best penny find.

Thats awesome. I found a 1919s yesterday and was ecstatic. All I have left in my 1941-1975 folder are a few S mint mark wheats.

Great find, and very good looking. This is what CRH'g is all about, it's not only how much silver you can stack, but the thrill of finding something worthy for the collection process. Great going!!!!!
