Treasure Lot of Old U.S. Cents: Wheats, Indian, Flying Eagle, Large Cents & More

Description

I began assembling this lot of more than 750 coins (I just counted fifteen full rolls plus a dozen or so additional coins) well over a decade ago as I tossed what I considered to be wheat cent culls into an empty tea cannister.  Thus, you're sure to find in this lot a bunch of wheaties that have dents, scratches, corrosion, holes, suspicious color, and various other problems.
As the years went by, I got more selective regarding what cents I wanted to hang onto.  The result was that I began tossing into my "culls" cannister a lot of cents that some collectors would consider to be much too nice to be classified as traditional culls.
Then I began to weed out some of my Flying Eagle and Indian Head cents, adding to the cannister a smattering of U.S. coins from the latter half of the 19th century.  Then a couple of U.S. large cents.  And at least one U.S. two-cent piece.  And, it appears, at least a couple of Civil War tokens (one of them holed).
And then I found in a closet a bunch of wheaties in cardboard 2x2s that had been conservatively graded by some prior collector, and nearly all of which appear to me to be problem-free.  I really don't have good reason to hang on to them, so into the mix they went.
So this is going to be an interesting and enjoyable lot for the winning bidder to examine.  It'll have a bunch of dogs, and it'll have a bunch of coins that will be pleasant surprises for many collectors.
As I hand-counted the coins in the tea cannister to determine an accurate number to describe this lot, I noticed at least one copper-nickel cent, some IHCs from the  mid-1860s  and the 1880s, some mostly red or full-red wheaties, the larger U.S. coppers mentioned above, a surprising number of teens wheaties (including, I recall, a 1913-D and a 1915-D), some steel cents, a fair number of "S" mint-marked wheaties, and an old Liberty nickel that somehow got mixed into the copper coins.  I also noticed a Post-It note on the cannister indicating that I'd at some point thrown in a couple of 1909 Lincolns, one with a VDB.  (No guarantee on that, but I'd be surprised if you don't find those in here as well.)
Happy bidding, and happy searching!
