<p>[QUOTE=&quot;softmentor, post: 2199297, member: 10469&quot;]I make myself a cheat sheet for each denomination. so, for ex., for 1 cent I make a grid of boxes the size of a cent. then I mark the boxes that have possible keepers. </p><p>All wheats, they don&#039;t need a box. stack them at the top off the boxes.</p><p>All copper they don&#039;t really need a box, They actually go in a little plastic tub to be rolled.</p><p>but there are some copper dates that stand out so for ex. dates where I mark the box are 71P, 72P, 82DP, 83P, 84P 92DP, 95P ... and so on. up through 09. I actually write in the dates and mint marks on those boxes.</p><p>So I wind up with rows of boxes, with 2 marked in the 70&#039;s row, 3 marked in the 80&#039;s row, 5 in the 90&#039;s row, and so on. </p><p>Also, if there is a coin in my album that could use upgrading, I write that date in and also the word &quot;book&quot; in that box. (for example 1971P dime.. mine is crummy. You would not believe how rare those stinkers are on the west coast. : )</p><p>I put that piece of paper on a rigid clip board, so I can pick up the project and move it if I need to</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, I have coin tubes for my groupings, I have a tube for each &quot;keeper&quot; in the denomination Ex I have a tube for 2009, one for wheat, one for copper, one for S mint. I roll them each time the tube gets full. The error years I look through as a batch so all the 92&#039;s I check as a batch when I get to the end of a bunch of rolls. (For me with my eyes, I have to do this with a little microscope that I set up on my computer, so it&#039;s easier to do as a batch)</p><p>So, that&#039;s my plan, but there is no one way to do it. Everyone finds their own way of doing roll search. Do what works for you.&nbsp; Hope that helps[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
