Found my second ever collection dump today. The first collection dump I ever found was a half dollar dump of over a dozen standing liberties and several bens from the same exact bank that today's find came from.

Went into the bank and the teller tells me that she has a surprise for me. This is the only bank in my area that will sell me bags straight off the coin counter they have in the back. She brings out a $50 bag of cents and says "there are a lot of those wheat pennies in here that you are always looking for so have fun". Well she was right. The bag ended up producing 171 wheat cents with the oldest being a 1910. The coolest thing about this find was the two 1943 steelies that were in the bag, a 43-D and 43-P :headbang:. These are my first ever war cent finds in the wild so I am really excited. Plus the bag had a good variety of cents and plenty of examples of pre 1940's :hello2:

All of the pre 40's dates are in the pics below.

Finding a bank teller that would go over & above for someone (as a CRH) is harder to find than a Walker/Ben/64Ken in the same roll. We need more tellers like that to help us. WOW, nice going.
