For me, coin roll hunting includes not only going through old paper wrapped rolls but also examining bags and cans of coins I get. Sometimes what...
I see this sometimes. More often on pennies than on other coins, maybe just because pennies are what I handle the most of. These came from a bag...
I am assuming that like me many buy rolls seeking a specific coin, be it a 1916d Mercury or a 1955 double strike. For decades when doing that I...
For me the best old unsearched rolls I went through were the ones marked Federal Reserve Bank of New York, with the Federal Reserve Bank of Denver...
Do you buy the coins one at a time (Ebay, coin shops, etc.) or do you buy old lots of coins (rolls, or buy the pound, etc.), semi-completed albums...

I open the roll this afternoon and start going through the pennies one at a time with my magnifier to sort them, wheat, copper, post 1982. I hit...
Tonight I was sorting a boring old fruitcake can of mixed pennies (so far 1919 - 1995) I had acquired when I noticed these two specimens. I have...

I am confused and my Redbook isn't helping. From business strike roll searching I have acquired a fair amount (more than 100) S marked Memorial...
