First wheat penny!

[mypanicfall]

Today I found my first wheat penny and its also the oldest coin I've found to date. I found it across the street from an old park in a strip of land right next to the side walk. The penny is a 1919 plain in very good condition. I also found 31 cents in clad and a token that i can't read.

Great glad you got your first and surely wont be your last. I know Wheaties are fun to get and when I found my first, a 1953, I wanted older and older until I found the first year it was made then it was all about getting the WWII pennies. I have a collection book now almost filled.
