Between work and life, it’s been hectic lately and I haven’t been able to get out much for some swing time. Today though I was fortunate enough to meet TheHunterGT at the local old park and got a few hours of detecting in. I pulled a few bucks in clad and two wheats, including a 1910-S semi-key date wheat cent. Nothing super special but it was nice to dig a few holes.

I love finding wheat pennies in good shape like yours. I have coin folder books for wheat pennies, barber dimes, and mercury dimes that I am trying to fill.

Yep! Even wheats can pay off. Little over a decade ago I dug a 1914-D in excellent shape. Graded it according to my Red Book and it's a $300.00 coin, and went into the empty slot of my Whitman coin book. I've found some 1909's and 1909 V.D.B.'s but still waiting on that elusive 1909-S, VDB. Good find!
 

Very nice find, congrats! :occasion14:
 

Some people skip those wheat signals but I never do. You never know when it’s gonna be something like this, especially living on the west coast. Nice going!!
 

Congrats on some nice finds!
 

Nice wheat! It's in great shape too! Congrats! :icon_thumleft:
 

A great feeling comes with finding old wheat pennies like that one.Next you will pull up a 09s or 11s.
 

That’s an old Wheaty in pretty good shape. Good job.
 

Congrats Valley....I would take that all day!
Will I last on this post too?
