What is your lowest mintage wheat cent from CRH?

[Yinzi50]

I just found a 1932-d with a mintage of 10.5 million and the runner-up was 1933 with a mintage of 14.4 million. Love to hear about yours. HH

Hi, Gman:

Very useful information you posted here. Looks like I have to spend money on the top 4 definitely if I want all holes filled. By the way, what's the total amount of pennies you have searched?

I found a nice 1931-d once... 4.48M minted. Unless you count the 1972 doubled die cent I found in 1987... about 75,000 or so minted (estimate).

1912 Wheat- 68,200,000


Didn't find it CRH, but found it on a desk at school last year (in front of a donation box that I was allowed to search through, also got a 1918 wheatie from the box)

1932d wheat cent, unfourtinately, it was cleaned. But a 1932d nonetheless.

 

[coolpix9]

1908d

 

[ckrakowski]

that would be a rare wheat cent but they did not mint any wheat cents in 1908 they were still indian head cents. but hey if it is a wheat i would love to see a picture of it.

Since I started keeping records in 2006...

approximately 4,600,000 pennies searched (approx 1840 boxes though most were in bags)
17476 wheat pennies found (approx. 9.5 wheats/$25)
33 Indian head cents (1 every 139,379 pennies searched though 14 of them came from one pickup so almost double that if you take that one find away)

I had searched some between the early 1980's and 2006 as well, but nowhere near the volume... like $10 here, $5 there a few times a year.

1904 I/h - 1907 I/H - 1901 I/H

 

[greatwun]

I found at 31 D. I think it's the only key date I have ever found.

 

[sagittarius98]

1904 I/h - 1907 I/H - 1901 I/H

Stick to the question

I recently found a 11-D. I don't know the mintages but it's one of the less common early wheats. It may not be my lowest mintage find either.

Looks like I've found a few of the lower mintage ones. ONe even twice. But not the big daddys.
