Found In Change - 1945 Wheatie - With Pics!

Hi, Everyone.

I have just returned home and taken some pics. Here is the 1945-P from this morning. After imaging it, it looks like VF-30 to me. It lookes like Old Abe really took a beating!

If you haven't noticed, I'm single and miserable and I've got four albums of bitching about it that I would offer as proof.

    I work at a pharmaceutical company. They're understandably anal about industrial espionage around here.

    I'll chime in on the Pharma work, too.

    I prefer friendly competitors image

    Interesting coincidence. I wonder if Pharmer does too...

    If you're in the Houston area, you just might have found one of the wheaties I set free for Coin Week. I had a "controlled release" (as they say in the refining and nuclear power industries) of about 150 wheaties last week. No one was injured.

    Cool find!

    I found a 30-D the other day. Saw the wheat back and was thinking 1958, turned it over and presto!!!

    I was hoping it would be worth a few buck....turns out a VF is worth about $.50

    Sure was better than $.01 though!!!

    If no one was injured, are you sure you did it right? image

    Our BSO used to work for J&J several years ago. She retired after nearly 30 years there....

    My girlfriend said to me the other day "Oh I have something for you that I found in change." She hands me a nice 1919 Lincoln in an XF condition. Said she got it from Mcdonalds.

    By the way, I'm a nurse and I pass out Pharmacuticals!

    Later, Paul.

    Later, Paul.
