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 buy merc dime rolls on ebay from time to time.and most are always 30's/40's common but from time to time i find a EF teen or 20's

 

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.

 

Went through a roll of 73S Kennedy's today and found a 73S DDO-002.

today I bought $10 in nickles and only recieved a 1959. not too good. shall try for halves tomarrow.

 

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.

 

Hello,

2 FS's
16 Keelboats
10 Bison
6 Peace medal
0 Ocean

 

I went through 6 rolls of nickels today, and found 6 pre-1960.

 

dang, good job on the proof!

 

I don't usually get rolls but last month I got a roll of 1969 50c CAD and in it I found a... let the suspense build up... 50c from 1968

 

LOL

 

About 5 years ago I went to the bank and got $50 in halfs and the teller said a man brought in a roll of halfs to cash in that she had not seen before and wondered if I wanted them. Needless to say I said yes and could not wait to see them. When she gave them to me on the outside of the roll was 2 tail Franklin halfs so I knew I had a great deal (at .50 cents apiece) what I did not know was the roll contained 4 Franklin halfs, 10 walkers, 5 Barbers and last but the best of all an 1878 Seated Half that was a VG-F. I thought right then I would never get a better buy and so far I have not even been Close!!! (nor do I expect to be).

 

DANG!

 

DOUBLE DANG!!!

 

HOLY [insert favorite 4-letter expletive] !!!! What did you do? go change your pants afterward?

 

I went through a box of nickels last night:
42 Pre 1960
1989-S Proof
1943-P Wartime
1945-P Wartime
1945-S Wartime
Last but not least, a 1913-S Type 1 Buffalo F-12. This is, so far, the oldest and most valuable nickel that I've pulled from a roll. Now if only I could find a 1916 DDO.....
