    In this video, I will search through a box of wheat pennies that I purchased from my coin dealer. I was able to purchase these coins that had small cents that included a few Indian Head Cents for only 2x face value!
    My Silver Dealer knows the things I like and sold all of his extra coins to me for a great deal. Since I usually purchase all the old silver and he knows I like copper too, he let me get it all! I will be looking for key dates, semi key dates, upgrades, and of course and varieties within the years I hunt. Hopefully you all enjoy this video! I know it's a bit long, but we had a lot to go through!

    That 58-D is machined, they look like that after they've been popped out of those aluminum lucky penny tokens! I've probably gone through 500 pounds or more of wheats at my job, gets boring sometimes but if I was doing it for myself I know that would be a blast. Plus a rare coin comes out once in a blue moon.

    @williamfindspeople4341 Před 10 měsíci +6

    There is no easy way to search bulk penny hoards if you're looking for Varieties. 750 rolls or 37,500 pennies takes me about 7 days working everyday. That's about 5 gallon plastic bucket.
    What was your total count?

    • @RobFindsTreasure
      @RobFindsTreasure  Před 10 měsíci +2

      It ended up being equivalent to almost 6,500 wheaties - not fully accounting for the lighter steel cents.

    They are saying it was a good luck coin but looks to me like the collar was closed when that penny was struck making it a struck through collar/broad strike but only way to know is more research…. That’s a crazy good deal thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼

      He gets all the nickel and copper stuff at face value. He offers 2x face for that stuff for me, BUT he does tell the customers that they are welcome to take it to a coin shop. This is usually after he has agreed to buy whatever silver/gold/etc they have.

    Hello Rob,
    I have a 1983-D that weighs 2.91 grams. In your opinion what do you think I have? Too heavy for zinc, but under copper weight. Can you please direct me how to see if this is of value?
    Thanks
    Dennis

      Take it to a coin shop for an in hand inspection and likely needs to be sigma tested for its composition.
