Whitman folders!
Posted: Sat Mar 17, 2012 7:06 pmMade a trip up to a bigger city that has a coin store I used to go to as a kid. It was still there!
Not a large selection of pennies, but I did get the 3 Whitman folders for all the years (so far) of the Lincoln cent. They had a bucket full of about $10 in pennies that I went through, pulling all dating from before 1940.
So I got 206 pre 1940 wheats at 5 cents a pop, & the three folders. An enjoyable part of my Saturday morning.
Now I can start filling up that first Whitman folder, for the years 1909-40.
I also managed to get around 25 steel pennies at that price out of the bucket, as part of the 206 total.
*edit*: oops, was in wrong category of world coins!
