    I started roll searching pennies & nickels in 1969 and averaged 10-12 wheats per roll and 3 buffalo per roll. Some rolls were almost all buffalo. Boy, those were the days. I wish I knew then what I know now.

    Yes. You go to the bank and ask for rolls of pennys, dimes, halfs, whatever, pay for them, search them, return what wasn't collectable and start all over again.

    What fun.....I think I'll get some rolls tomorrow. :)

    Just got $20 worth of Half's all 65-68 as a single roll from the bank. Completely unexpected and totally made my day. :-D

    as a side note, another bank didn't have the box of halves that I had ordered. Figured I would be lucky to find 2-3 40% coins in that box. Never expected a single roll to be all 40%. Sure glad I didn't have to go through all those boxes for an equivalent amount of silver coinage. There are some good things with this economy I suppose ;-)

    Better question would be, HAS ANYBODY SEEN A 09 DIME OR NICKEL?

    How cool is that?!

    Is there any other place where you can find, randomly, two coins of the same denominations made 110 years apart?!
