    Post a WTB on the BST.
    See if that works.

    These days anything less than a nickel a coin ($250 a bag) is decent. They are difficult to find any more for less than $175 wholesale.

    pretty much all the bags available have been picked through, some more than others, but there are few truly "unsearched" bags out there.

    This should be on the BST. It is inappropriate to post on the US Coin forum.

    There are no Wheat cent bags that have not been picked through. Anywhere.

    It's certainly rare that wheaties have not been search by someone along the way. What seems less searched in wheaties is varities. Many old collectors searched for dates and mint marks but overlooked varieties and errors.
    I have found few really unsearched "hoards" in 65 years of collecting. There may be some out there but you'd have to go to the big boys, even someone like Apmex, as the time to search them is overwhelming and as they say time is money.
    When large collections get disbursed it's usually strong hands that get the chances to buy. So, that is where I'd be looking if I were still inclined to do so.

    Probably true.
