High School Wheaties....

I was very surprised to find the wheaties at our local high school, about $5.23 in clad all together. All in the area of the football, track field.

INteresting statement on the "clip" wheatie!

What's the value of a coin like that?

PS: Nice finds! Bigrig is right,....if you find wheaties then you'll most likely find silver, it just makes sense doesn't it

Great job! I just started around the first of March and the only wheat found so far is a 1957. .

Thanks Pirate, I've pulled out so many pennies that have been chewed up in gravel and so forth that I never realized there was such a thing as a clipped penny. It seems to me that a person could intentionally clip a coin. I found another wheatie that was bent almost in half, I didn't see any marks on it like pliers or anything but I didn't examine it under a magnifier either. Thanks again.
