I just started CRH with pennies and went through my first box a few days ago. Only found 5 wheats and ended with just about 20% coppers.

Yesterday my wife pulled out a bag of about 8 or so penny rolls that she rolled about a year ago from our change jar. I forgot all about them. Broke them open and in that 8 rolls, I found 7 wheats and one of them was this well worn 1909. Can't see any mint mark or VDB on the back. :-\

Even though it is all torn up, just think of the history of that thing and where it could have been. I wish all old coins had like a video or a book that came with them to say where they had been and what they had seen during their life of circulation. It would be amazing!
