I did mention it in my original post but thought better of posting anything and removed the post. In my haste I did not put the mint marks in.

All of these coins are in at least F (fine) condition and most are in VF (very fine) condition.

I feel some people, not all, are looking to take advantage of unknowledgeable people. I'm not sure what date this web page came out and the book I have for wheat pennies is packed away and probably outdated but this is what I found for those who may be unaware of wheat penny values. http://values.hobbizine.com/wheat-cents.html

EDIT: Since you are not looking to take advantage of anyone you should not have a problem with me posting the link. Also if anyone has a question about the value of a coin or stamp please PM me. I will give you the most recent price I have. I would hate to see someone sell a coin or a stamp for pennies when it is worth some money. I'm not looking to buy or sell anything, I just want to pass along information.

I guess I'm just a cynic and believe many people are dis-ingenuous. I cannot fathom why someone would waste their time for a penny that's worth about .03 without the hope of getting a rarer one from someone who does not know what their coin is worth.

I used to collect coins when I was a kid but I stopped. I do run across wheat pennies and indian heads from time to time. I will let you know if/when I see anything.
