As we near the halfway point of 2008, I'm nearing the halfway point in my wheat penny series search. The next new date I find will give me 70 out of a possible 140 varieties. Here's where you can join the fun!
Guess which [red]wheatie[/red] will be the 70th! ONE GUESS PER PERSON PLEASE! The winner will receive a 1976-S non-proof 40% silver half, found in a Vegas slot machine! Just to be sure there's no confusion, please specify P, D, S or VDB in your choice. Good luck!

Search #1 [$40] (5/7/08) - 1941-S (Small S), 1944, 1952-D, 1953-D, 1958D (2). Boooo! No winners this round.
Next search is probably Friday night. Anyone who hasn't made a guess yet can still do so.
#2 [$50] (5/9/08) - 1934, 1951-D, 1952-S, 1954-D, 1955-S, 1956-D, 1957-D and a 2001 with a religious cross design die cut thru it. I think GMan found one like this. Dang, no winner again! Leaving to go again within the hour. Hopefully today's the day...
#3 [$40] (5/10/08) - 1944, 1945-S, 1946-S, 1953, 1953-D (2), 1953-S...can you feel the suspense building, or is that frustration?
Better luck next time.
