Wheat War # 69 Dad vs Tanner with pics

[gordon and tanner]

This was a heated battle with the lead changing a few times during the sorting period. Tanner was the winner with 15 Wheats (oldest 1936) and a nice red young Queen 1964 which is an upgrade. Dad did have a double digit score of 10 Wheats (oldest 1917) this was the second battle in a row that a 1917 was found.

hey dad hate to say this but it looks like you only found 11 wheats unless i am miscounting. where you have the ones that say 10 wheats i only count 9. and with the other 2 it makes 11.

nope, all 12 coins are there, look closer at the 2nd wheat from the right, there's one on top of another(see the rims)

now i do i did not see it yesterday. as this is 1 of the first sites i visit right after i get up so i am usually still tired and since those 2 wheats are so close together it is no wonder i missed them.
