I found these in my moms attic. Who knows where they came from. There was a quarter book also, but it was empty :( Pretty cool find amongst the attic junk!


Some of the pics are doubles. I was having trouble with the lighting.
The count looks like this:

4 Merc dimes
63 1909-1958 wheaties including each variation of steelies
34 1959-1971 lincoln memorials

Man, when I saw that plain 1909 in the 1909 S VDB spot, I got pumped, til I noticed it was not a S. Hey, nice score! Who's coins were they?

I was pumped too until I inspected it. Also there is a 1955 wheatie that is missing the double die mark.....or it would have been a good one too. No rares in there really, but it was awesome to look!
 

Does the Whitman folder have a date on it? Great finds,
