Surprise Find

[Fingerlakes119]

I decided to sort some of last years clad so it can be taken to the bank. As I was removing the bent or broken or corroded coins from the pile I noticed a wheat cent in the pile. Low and behold I find a 1909 wheat cent I never knew I had found. My oldest wheat in 2014 was a 1911, so I thought. I wish I knew where I found it. I must have read the date incorrectly when it was dug. Since I had never dug 1909 wheat cent before I would have been really excited to have found it. Always check your clad finds prior to cashing them in you never know what you may find.

Also always check the change you receive when using cash. In the last 6 months I have been given 4 wheaties, 2 nickels from the 40's and a near mint 1959 quarter. HH
