Sold 200 wheats for 3 cents each

[Darth Walker]

I sold 200 pennies wheats for 3 cents each.

What do you think about the price paid to me?

[myprecious]

was your buyer paying ¢3 for pre-1982 copper pennies or just wheats?

 

[Darth Walker]

Just wheats. They do not buy any pre 1982

Ahhh, I think you got hosed. I mean ok, cost you a buck or so, but I'd have hung on to them for history's sake. C'mon $6 shouldn't change your lifestyle.

Don't forget your 1040 Schedule A Form

no profit to be made off them, therefore I will just stash mine away...

but to answer your question, if you had a lot of teens/twenties then you got hosed, but probably majority were 40s/50s so then you got fair price I think

Yep, the going rate is $1.50/roll for wheats. Non-ebay price.

1950's is about $.03 each. But older than 1950 is more

I'd be willing to buy others' hoards of wheats for 3 cents each. Anyone wanting to sell, please contact me.

Thanks
