Roll-searchers, post your results!

Pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, halves, or dollars, it doesn't matter. If you search for collectibles, rare dates, or oldies, post what you found! Don't forget, if you only found 1 goodie, its still good!

I am trying to get rolls of halves. My bank doesn't carry them and wont order them. Ill ask my dad to ask his bank. I did find a 1906 Indian Head penny in a roll of pennies once at work. I quickly grabbed that up.

I tried pennies a couple days ago and didn't find much. Got six rolls, no wheaties. But I did find a AU 1968-S and an Unc. 1972-D.
I also tried dimes...just filled in a couple holes in my whitman folder.

I bought a number of Jefferson rolls on ebay and ended up with near 80 RPM's or multiple strike mint marks. Wish I hadn't missed so many other rolls from that seller. I posted a couple here (variety nickels), but had many 53-s, rpm-002,3,4, and 54-s, 54-d, and a few other dates. Several are not yet attributed. Waiting for the Jefferson RPM update from CONECA, before I attempt attribution on a few.
Lately, I'm getting into Morgan VAMs. Don't even need rolls to find interesting die variations. Many are already slabbed without attribution.

Curiosity, if you pull a coin out of a mixed roll, how can it be Unc?

I made out a list for my wife of what to look for at her place of business, and I check pocket change. I 've found a 98 wide a.m. cent and quite a few rpm's and 4 missing clad quarters, dimes and 1 quarter with missing clad on both sides. My wife has found maybe a dozen or so proof quarters, dimes and nickles from the 60's. The proofs are in great shape with one or two cams and a couple that have fingerprints, pays to look I guess.
