Tell us what you're looking for. In general, volume is the key! If important coins were easy to find, they wouldn't be worth looking for.
Virtually never, I don't like being the bag-holder. However, my LCS submits a lot of coins and quite a few come back bagged. The owner usually...
Or old PMD concealed by the toning.
