Wheat heavy box

Postby stonewallrabbitry » Sat Feb 25, 2012 10:13 pm

I just finished sorting half a box (25 rolls). So far I got 72 wheats with the oldest being 1918, plus an additional 2.78 pounds of copper. I hope the other half of the box is as good

Old stock! Those boxes have been sitting around for a while or they got rolled from a stash that had been sitting for a while. Either way, go back and buy everything they have!

They looked newly wrapped, all I can get from my bank are pennies wrapped and boxed by their service provider. I had about a two month period that I took a break from sorting but still picked up my weekly three box order, that was a box that had been picked up during that time
