What looked like was going to be a truly epic box turned into a giant disappointment.
Verdigris. Ugg.
Fished ~60 wheats from the first half of the box, but tossed ~ 2/3rds of them back. Looks like someone dumped an infected collection.
Tossed 25%-ish of the '59-'82 back too - can it cross-contaminate that quickly in MWR?

Not ALL was lost. I did keep a few pre-'40s that were unaffected, or only showed a minor spot or two, including a 1912-s (4.4 M mintage), 1917, 1925 and 1928. The other cool find was a 1943-s steelie (obviously unaffected). Interested to see what the 2nd half of the box turns up.
