<p>[QUOTE="scottishmoney, post: 2012789, member: 12789"]If you are roll searching to make money you are in the wrong line of business. I roll search for the "thrill of the hunt" In 2014 I have found 2 flying eagle cents, both dated 1858, and several 19th century and early 20th century dated IHC's. It is a bit like a form of gambling, except you lose nothing but your time and effort.</p><p><br /></p><p>The only coins I find that I turnover are the 40% halves solely because I have no interest in them at all, other than getting a profitable return on my find that I can roll over into more roll buying. Otherwise I keep all the 90%, and in the past couple of weeks with the find of the elusive '43-D war nickel from a roll search completed my Jefferson nickel book from 1938-1959. I found the '50-D back in February or March - thought I would never find one, then I did in a CWR and a nice AU example no less.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
