Didn't get much help on what to look for so here is what i found out of 2 boxes ($100 each) 1 - 1944-d 1 - 1945-p 3 - 2009 Some others too: ~20 in the 1940's ~30 in the 1950's ~100 in the 1960's ~200 in the 1970's Have not gone through these as i need to do some more research to what i should be looking for. Also checked my 2005's for speared buffs, no go.
Wheat cents, minted from 1909-1958 always carry a premium. I suggest keeping all of those, and keys or semi keys, in between those years can be valuable but are hard to find. Varieties and errors like doubled dies can be found, so if you know how to find these errors and what they are (I suggest doing some good research) then that is what you should keep. Anything before 1909 is extremely rare to find, but not usually incredibly valuable. Rule of thumb, Keep anything before 1959. And if you would like we do have a coin roll hunting forum for all of us to post our results. This is only pertaining to coin roll hunting cents. Other denominations have different rules of whats valuable. This is usually what has a premium over face, but I suggest keep coins which you like, or have an interesting story as well.
