Wheat penny value?

[stumpy041486]

What are wheat pennies worth? I may have found some that I can buy, and I was wondering what is a fair price to pay for them? Also, there are some steel pennies. I know some are worth more than others, and it depends on their condition, but I would like to get an average price of like a roll of wheats or loose wheats.

Thanks

On a average run of wheat pennies, about .05 cents each on them, without searching them that's all I would pay, now there are some worth alot more then that, but you'd have to search them to find them & if you are buying from a coin dealer, you can bet they have already been searched.

Here you go. All you need to know. Bear in mind that these are retail values, if you are selling, you should expect offers that are about half the printed value.
