I was just on vacation for two weeks. While at my parent's, I looked through some of my boxes I have stored in their basement. There was a couple of coffee cans full of wheaties I found in the 1970's. After arriving home,I separated them by decades. There were....
1,304 1950's
1,624 1940's
411 1930's
193 1920's
176 1909-1919
and 24 no dates

total 3,732
I did look for the rare ones, but did not find any. I did not find much with the md on the trip though, just a lot of clad. Thanks for reading this. HH
