The next bag of pennies I pick up should push me over the 1000 wheat penny barrier (only 8 short now).

And when I search through about 16% of the bag of nickels, I will have searched through 500,000 coins already in 2008.

Finished the bag of nickels last night..nothing special

28 pre-1960 Jefferson (1939, 1940(2), 1941-S Small S, 1942, 1946, 1947, 1948, 1951, 1952-S, 1954, 1954-D, 1954-S, 1957-D(4), 1958-D(7), 1959, 1959-D(3))

15 Canadian (1975, 1977, 1979, 1982, 1983, 1984(2), 1985(2), 1986, 1994, 1997, 1999, 2000, 2001-P)

1 Foreign ( Switzerland, 20 Rappen (1985))

1 penny


And while cashing the in the reject pennies I found 1 Canadian Quarter (1975) in the reject slot and 2 Ikes (1974-D, 1976 Var 2) that got left where you pour coins in since they are too big to go through. Additionally I somehow ended up with an extra $8-$9 in pennies than what I paid for the bags which I have never had happen to that extent before.
