    The 1931-S is the big semi-key date and mint combination. Among the others, the 1932, 1933 and 1931-D are better than run of the mill. Generally any nice looking, VF or better mint marked piece from this era could be called a nice find.

    Nice doubled dies on the 1925-S, 1934, and 1935, all best seen on the date. see the CONECA website-http://www.varietyvista.com

    There is a very nice listing of coin values on this (PCGS) website. Also Photograde to get an idea of the coin's condition. Take a look, good resources.

    1925-S also has a nice repunched mintmark, so does the 1927-d.

    Not too bad. Copper value is 2 cents each.

    1926-S is a semi-key date.

    Slap an IHC on one end and a beat up Seated dime on the other and throw 'em on eBay: "L@@K, unsearched original Wheat rolls". You'l make a million $, I tell 'ya.

    Nice, honest, undamaged circulated wheats are not always easy to find. If they were mine i would also pull those out.
