I hadn't been searching much lately so I volunteered to search some circ wheat bags for a friend.

The highlights were:
56-d 1MM-001
41-p 1DO-002 (I was amazed to find this one!)

Sort of fun after not searching for a while. Sort of motivates me to do more searching if my neck can stand it.

Very nice Ed. I haven't been searching much either, but I did find a nice partial brockage, and a decent sized cud a little bit ago. Too much work to do, and not enough time!

Well I searched another bag for the same guy.

It looked like the most pre-searched dud bag on earth LOL...
After thinking it had nothing I found another 1956 RPM-1 then a 1955-D DDO die-1 and a few minor things. Then right at the end I found a 1946-S/D!!

That 46 S over D made my day even though I knew I would give it to the guy that owned the bag. It's one of the varieties I always wanted to find. Those coins are neat, even on a brown circ there's no question what it is. That D looks sharp and easy to see.

Didn't take any pics before I gave the coins back but it was a fun find!
