    For this hunt, we will be looking through a total of 10,000 pennies...
    How many Wheaties, Indian Head Pennies, Proof Pennies, Errors and/or varieties, as well as other coins can we find?
    Let me know if you like videos like this and would want to see a massive hunt for other denominations as well!
    If you like my Penny Mat, I do sell my custom Coin Roll Hunting Mats (see below):

    What do you prefer to hunt? Pennies, Nickels, Dimes, Quarters, Halves? What's your best score from a box of Pennies? Which of the "Big Banks" do you think gives up the best boxes?
    How have your penny hunts been lately? What's your best find in bank wrapped rolls?
    Keep hunting and good luck!
    They're still out there for us to find!

    I'm almost 68 years old now, and this takes me back to my teen years, when, several times a week, I'd get a $50 bag of pennies from the bank and rip through them with the hawk eyes of a very young man. Naturally, back in the sixties I was finding occasional Indian heads and tons of really interesting older Lincolns. Sometimes in excellent, lustrous condition. (There was no PCGS back then, of course!) I grew up in Philly, so "S" pennies were the Big Find for me. Never got the S-VDB or the 14-D, but I did find just about everything else. Even a Flying Eagle or two. And then there were the bags of nickels and dimes and quarters. Same basic story. Anyway, you have to appreciate this collector's raw and infectious enthusiasm, his knowledge, his methodology, and his savvy editing. So, what's a person's time worth? Professionally, quite a lot. But this isn't a profession. It's a hobby. And hobbies can coax the obsessive from us. Friends, this isn't about making money, per se, it's not about an hourly rate. It's about something far more sublime: IT'S ABOUT THE THRILL OF THE HUNT! Thank you, buddy, for bringing it all back to me. A priceless 24 minutes. May you find your copper '43.

      Hey Bruce, I'm your age and I helped a friend clean out his mom's house. Her boyfriend was a coin collector/coin dealer/hoarder. Basement filled with everything and a TON of coins. Anyway, I got all the pennies for helping........ you.... can't.... imagine: 5,000 Indian Heads. Hundreds of rolls of wheaties, 27 partial sets of book one of the Lincolns.... and... in ... a book.... stuck with all the others...... a 1909 S VDB. amazing value, but for an old pennie collector, just a stunning moment

    • @shananagans5
      @shananagans5 5 років тому +12

      No doubt. I am a 52yo woman but I totally got into coin collecting when I was a kid. In the late 70s/early 80s there were still rich pickings in rolls from the bank.
      The big thing for me was finding the steel pennies. My grandparents had change buckets dating back to the early 1900s. That was like an archaeological dig.
      I was not an extremely knowledgeable collector as far as pennies. I just went through and picked out the indian heads, wheats, the steels and whatever stuck out as unusual. I did find a penny that was only struck on about 1/3 of it. It was bent from the striking process and everything. Biggest error coin I have ever seen. Anyways, yes, hours spent hunting for something unusual.
      Unfortunately, very few kids are into that kind of thing now. I have a bunch of proof sets I purchased in the early 80s. I assumed their values would go up but they didn't. Values crashed because so few people are into coins now.

    • @jimthesoundman8641
      @jimthesoundman8641 5 років тому +11

      Wheat pennies were minted from 1909 to 1956, the obverse featured our 16th President, Abraham Lincoln (1861-1865) and the reverse featured two wheat stalks surrounding the words "One Cent". In 1957 the design on the reverse was changed to feature the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC. So if you see a wheat penny, you know automatically you have an oldie. They are easy to spot.

It also helped that my sister worked at a savings and loan and would be on the look out for me. Later on I purchased the 1955 dd in ms64 condition. It's the only penny I still own and will probably never sell it. My friends couldn't figure out why I was always broke. I was always saving for the next coin that I couldn't find.

    Out of 10,000 pennies lets say he found 50 keepers. If the average value of those fifty are $.03, then the total value is $1.50. The remaining 9,950 pennies can be cashed in for $99.50.
    His total return would be $101 on a $100 investment. Still better than a savings account.

      Wouldn't the profit be only $1? He still had to purchase the pennies in the first place for $100.

      Bear in mind that he had to go buy these, do this whole thing, then drive to the bank to dump these pennies into the counting machine.

    I just completed a 10,000 penny hunt and will be posting it on my channel soon. Its been a while since I've done a hunt to this magnitude and ended up finding a bunch! I got 62 Wheats which was awesome, meaning 15 per box! I found a lot of Canadians as well including a King George V! All in all, though very time consuming, it was one of my favorite hunts to date!

    When I was a kid and my grandparents gave me their buckets of change that they didn't want to roll, I always went through them to find the older or special edition coins. I always liked to find Canadian coins with King George on the back, and I got a few wheat pennies as well

    I am anything but a coin collector, but your video got (and kept) my attention. Would you be kind enough to answer a few questions? 1) What is the significance/value of a "wheat penny?" 2) What is a proof penny and does it have any extra value as such? and 3) What is the value of the Canadian pennies? (and the one from Bermuda)? Thank you. Good luck in you future hunts.
