I know this isn't anything special but it's rare these days. I was just at the grocery store and received this 1920 wheat in change.
Yes we still find wheats now and then but there usually from the 40s- 50s.
Very nice condition and looks original/not cleaned or damaged.

Love the 1885-CC Morgan

    Nice pick up. For some reason over the last few years I have also received several 1920 wheat cents in change along with 1946 wheat cents. These two dates seem to be the most common in my experience.

    A fine find.

    I like the woodgrain background.

    Much better than normal for a 104 year old coin found in circulation. Not very valuable but an interesting find.

    Just think of how many hands and pockets that coin has been in and who's hands could it have been. Too cool.

    A 1920 wheat cent is a nice find for sure. Most of what I have found are from the 1940's and 1950's.
