Nice score! I haven't been that lucky in bank rolls yet.

I don't think this counts, but I did get lucky on a small box of pennies from FeeBay recently -- advertised as a pile of Lincoln memorial copper cents. Ended up being about 40% 1950-58 wheaties, many were AU shiners. Suprise bonuses like that make my day :thumbup: .

Nice to find so many pre-1940 wheats in a batch.

Nice finds! I'm envious of you folks that can get CWR's
Oh, this is the worst-looking hat I ever saw. What, when you buy a hat like this I bet you get a free bowl of soup, huh?

Oh, it looks good on you though.
