A Wheat Penny

A few days ago I decided to go through my coin purse and clear out some of these coins that had piled up. I think I had no less than 47,000 pennies that I was lugging around day in and day out. As I was digging through the coins I stumbled upon a wheat penny. I felt that little tingle in me, that tingle of me as a child when I collected coins with my Dad and Grandpa.  I looked down at the date and saw that it was minted in 1912 and quickly set that penny to the side.  Even though I don't go out searching and buying old money like I once did as a kid I still enjoy when I find a rare piece of money in my daily life. I mean how often do you find a penny that is 98 years old?
