Nice Bag on Friday

Postby MUTiger » Sat Mar 10, 2012 11:59 pm

Here are a few details of a nice bag I picked up on Friday.

It included 86 wheat cents http://www.realcent.org/viewtopic.php?p=125352#p125352 and 4 Indian head cents http://www.realcent.org/viewtopic.php?p=125103#p125103. All except 3 of the pre-1940 wheat cents and all 4 of the Indian Heads were captured in the zinc pile of a copper accept. I then run a zinc accept and about 10 of the pre-1940 wheats that I did not see go into the zinc pile got spit out by the Ryedale.
Totals
1187 Cu LMC (23.7%)
86 Cu wheat cents (1.8%)
3718 Zn Lincolns (74.4%)
5 Canadian (0.1%)
4 Indian Head Cents (0.08%)
5000 total

It include 5 very nice Lincolns dated
1921
1922 Weak D ? (Not sure, but I think it meets this description http://www.lincolncentresource.com/1922Ddievarieties.html
1923
1924

That's a great haul. Gotta love finding IHs with partial liberty in the wild!
