relayer · July 20, 2004 1:06PM

Placid is wrong.

You can have up to 281

why should there be a limit?

AuldFartte · July 21, 2004 11:09AM

uh-oh. Think I've got about 70,000 or more around here .....

atarian · July 21, 2004 11:11AM

i got a few 1000 here at least 2 binders full, a few 100 in 2x2 not in binders and then lot of loose ones in draws seperated by years. i love looking for oldies even though i rarely find them

If someone can have 175,000 Ikes, I'd have to think the answer is greater than that number. Though I'll confess that I usually spend the typical wheaties I find. I don't need a 1956-D cent valued at five cents, and if it stokes someone else's interest in collecting later on, so much the better.

If you have the wheat penny crazies, you can forget any type of limit. A friend of mine doesn't even collect coins. But he has gobs of them in boxes and keeps buying more.

I was going to post some really smart response, but then I remembered I am a nice guy.

I collected about 2000 wheat pennies back in the early 70's when they were considerably more common. They are in rolls and collecting dust in my closet. I also completed 5 Whitman Lincoln cents 1941-1975 books from circulation finds.

Sorry guys, the limit is an even 50. At that point you roll them up and take them to the bank.

Baley · July 21, 2004 12:39PM

what do you want them for?

personally, I'd rather have one neat coin than a big bag of wheat cents, but thats just me

When the ugly girls start looking pretty and the pretty girls have all left with someone else, its been too many...

141, because then by the pigeonhole principle there must be a duplicate.
