[QUOTE="scottishmoney, post: 421773, member: 12789"]Regarding roll searching, everybody has dud times with rolls. A few months back I went in and bought a box of pennies to search for wheats and pre-1982 bronze and turned up an entire box of 2007-D cents. Dimes and Quarters are going to be a bust for the most part, I never do those. Halves are good for silver, in fact I don't do half rolls, but I check the teller trays at my banks for silver, I got a 1964 and a 1967 just last Friday. Nickels are good, I keep the pre-1960's and 1968-1970 San Fran minted coins. Cents are the bomb, much better chance for good finds. Last Friday I bought two boxes, turned up 22 wheats including a 1909 VDB, my oldest cent find ever. I have several hundred wheats all total from finds in the last year. I usually go through 4-6 boxes a month. Most of the wheats will of course be 1940's and 1950's, but I still find a reasonable number in the teens and twenties. I got a semi key 1916-D in a box find just a few weeks ago.[/QUOTE]
