There were and average amount of wheats found in this battle but we did find a good one. We both searched $25 in cents. All rolls were bought from tellers either $5 or $10 at a time, about half were customer rolled, the others machine rolled. There were only 6 plastic wrapped rolls, the rest were paper.

Dad came out ahead with 11 wheats oldest (191?) We are really bummed that we could not make out the last digit I would vote for 1912. Dad also scored a 1925 cent, a 1983 D dime, and 9 common wheats.

Tanner managed just 6 wheats but he managed a nice score with a 1916 cent.
This one is needed for our Found in the Wild Book.:hello2::hello2: He also find a 1994 D dime and 5 common wheats.

Over all this was a good hunt.

Keep on Searching
Dad and Tanner

Ya I'd say 17 or 12, hard to tell though, great finds! HH, Maverick.

We are rooting for 1912 as we already have found a 1917

PS Do you think a coin shop could get the date with a loupe?

Wish I could tell you, it's worth a try. Hope it turns out be a 1912 for you! HH, Maverick.

I had one like your unknown coin where I couldn't tell whether it was 1917 or 1927. It turned out to be a 1927, which was needed for my book at the time. I found a 1912 last year laying on a desk in my class where a donation box was. I had no cents with my or I would put a couple to make up for the person miss.
