Hey guys! I am back again! Well as you may have known, I went metal detecting yesterday. I did not plan on posting my finds but, I finally got around to looking up the wheat penny that I had found. I was at the 1928 farm again; I ended up digging almost 4-5lbs of trash, and finally a 1929 wheat. Then we went back to tacoma, and decided to hunt a grass sidewalk strip that would probably produce something considering the house that was located by the grassy strip was 1900-1930's era. My first hit was a memorial, then my second hit was another one. Third hit was a 1945 wheat! Nate was amazed yet again, how I have found an old coin in such shallow soil.
After swinging my coil around a little bit more, I got a really good penny signal, next to the sidewalk. I decided to dig it anyway, because even though it would be a memorial, it still would be fun. It turned out to be a 1915 S penny! I was super stoaked to get my oldest penny ever!!!
At the time, I did not know that it was going to be worth some money. Not much, but some. Today, I was bored and stuck at home with the dogs. I decided to check on ebay to see how much money the 1915 S wheats were going for. They said a VG-Fine was already up to $5 with 5 or 6 days left in the auction. I looked at the penny in good condition and it was already up to $2 with shipping at $3 and it still had 4 days left. To say the least, I am very pleased and happy that I got a penny that is worth something! It was a 1915 S and is worth $7 in Good condition! Which mine is in! I never thought that I would find a wheat penny that is worth $7!!!
