Pennies...

Cents...

Thought this would fit in with CRH even though they aren't rolled yet... The father in law dropped off over a gallon of cents today.

Outside of wheats/IH are there any that may be of any value to watch out for?

Wow. Definitely have some reading to do later tonight. Makes me feel better about my decision to sort by decade and then search within.

Your eyes will be buggie after all those pennies

Definitely take lots of Breaks.

(or break out the glaucoma medicine )

After 5 solid hours I had to call it quits! I have about a third left to have them sorted by decade so I can begin my search within. 11 wheats so far, the oldest being 1917.

Glaucoma medicine causes blindness in healthy individuals.

Awesome! Hopefully the cold beer tonight will not get me too confused before it's all said and done.

May help someone else although I'll admit I didn't pay attention to the OP date.

Don't forget the 1955 double die...good luck.

 

[smokeythecat]

And don't forget the 1998, 1999 and 2000 wide "AM"'s on the back, 1996 double die, 2006 double die, 2009 formative years DDR, 2014 doubles and 2015 doubles.

Plus the biggie for later years - the 1995 double die obverse. I found another one in change a few weeks ago.

And I always forget to look at the dates, but who cares? Like those pennies. I have no "cents".

 

[enamel7]

The correct description is "doubled" die.
