Famine to Small Feast

Postby exbingoaddict » Tue Nov 09, 2010 2:26 am

Haven’t roll sorted in quite some time but joining this forum put me in the mood.
Picked up two boxes over the weekend. Opened up the box to find it was 2010 cents. Next day, another try, didn’t have to open the box, saw the 2010 BU’s staring back from the holes in the box. Third time is a charm or a strike out. This time I stopped at a branch where I was offered costumer rolls.

Doing pretty well on them taking in almost 33% copper. Only two wheat cents though. I always take bit of pleasure in finding wheats. It’s a neat feeling, taking another wheat cent out of circulation.

Welcome to the madness we call insightful sanity. :D I feel the same about the wheaties. I figure they have done their time in circulation. Now it is time for them to retire in my collection. Ha! :lol: Welcome aboard! Twenty
