Birthday Present.

My wife got me a $25 box of pennies last week for my birthday. Opened then up, found usual breakdown of ~20% copper, 7 wheats, 2 canadian. But, the real catch was a blank planchet! Nothing to see yet got me pretty excited. We all need to gives our wives a big hug for feeding into and supporting our metal passions.

Keep stacking!

nice find!

I have only found one in my 2 years of searching cents, it was a zinc. They are very rare in the wild because it is an obvious find for a non coin collector.

What would be sweet is for your wife to "seed" a box for you :) And never tell you. You pull out a few King George V's a couple teen wheats, etc. :)
