Yesterday my girl friends daughter was at the house. She works at a gas station and her boss calls her. They have $5.50 cents worth of rolls with wheats on both ends. The boss knows I collect, because Monica always goes thru the register for me. Off to town she goes to get them,on her return she had opened the rolls and put them in a small box. The box was filled with 1930's wheats. Working the gravyard shift I put the box on the table and went to bed and then to work. What a long night just thinking about that small box. Well it's 8am and I will post the results when I am done.

Great story.. congratulations!

Do you want to sell that 1932-s? I could use the 1934-s also.

Right there is the joy of coin collecting! You never know when the next little jewel will turn up! And to get so many in eleven rolls is a great story! Congratulations!

[inflationhawk]

Let me know if you want to sell any of the 1935 pennies please.

[CU Baker]

Thanks for the offers, but they are already in the grandkids books or in the bins ready to be rolled.

You had me looking for extras for you looks like Whitman and Dansco need to add some holes.

I was wondering when someone was going to catch that. And here I thought I had all the holes filled.

Darn! I always skim over the minute details and then look like a sap for missing the obvious. Great call HCBTT, wish I had caught it, too.

[HoardCopperByTheTon]

I'm not always awake. Sometimes you can catch me sleepin' .. like Wednesday night when I rolled up a small group of pennies to turn in with a bunch of dime rolls. I get to the bank on Thursday and look at the rolls and think.. that looks odd.. they are in orange paper. Seems I loaded quarter paper on the rolling machine and didn't even catch it. Guess I must have been really tired Wednesday night.

[CU Baker]

It took over a day for someome to catch it. I was going to put in a couple of 31s just to see who wanted a real whole filler, but thought it would be a bit of a stretch. Great catch hoard. Kathy thinks I am for playing games,but were both sitting here getting a good laugh. Have a great day

[HoardCopperByTheTon]

Sorry for taking so long to catch it.. I had to work at the day job all day to support my bad penny habit and I had just gotten home from work. Caught it right away the first time I read the post. I was surprised how many missed it even after I put that big clue in about it.

Thanks for the great laugh.
