WEST UNION, OH - On October 8th, college student and part-time worker at Blakes Pharmacy, Eli Osman, 22 discovered a mildly rare 1949 US Wheat Penny in change given back from a elderly customer.
“Wow, look at this a 1949 Wheat penny! It’s still pretty shiny for a sixty year old coin.” Eli said to his fellow co-worker, Kyle Young, 25.
“That’s cool, I guess.” Young stated.
The 1949 Wheat Penny with a value of 10-20 cents was then brought to Manger, Joey Traylor, 41 for inspection. Traylor’s inspection of the coin was cut short due to a waiting customer purchasing Quality Choice brand mouthwash.
“I’m just glad a found such an old coin. I hope I find more rare coins in the future, like a 1945 penny or something.” Osman told reporters. Osman proudly placed the coin in his pocket.
