I found an INDIAN PENNY (1896) coin roll hunting!! Plus back-to-back Wheaties in another roll

So I was going through yet another box/case (which is the right word?) of pennies and I thought it was lucky enough to find two Wheaties back-to-back in the same roll but boy did I do a bit of a gasp when I saw my first ever INDIAN penny CRHing! An 1896 one to be exact!

Wow, what are the odds of that?

    Well I have Mazer, who is 10 and Sassie, who is 18. Mazer is the tabby. :)

    Your kitty who's voting age in human years just goes to show that a cat's place is in the home!

    And I don't care how that saying usually goes, kitties are man's REAL best friend!

    And back on the subject of coins, wouldn't a bank like this be so kawaii? :blush:

    The Indian Cent is a great and unusual find these days. I used to get them in change when I was a kid with a paper route.... No more. Cheers, RickO

    @Estil, you don’t see may of those in rolls today. Last one I found was 10 years ago and was a 1905. Our kitties Finnley whose 5 and Freddie at 8.

    Unusual? I didn't figure you'd ever find them as with Wheaties at least the front looks the same as the later Memorial/Shield ones so it's much easier to get them mixed in the rolls.
