[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 2947849, member: 27832"]Rolls of quarter eagles are always good. ;) If you're looking to occupy a lot of time while tying up minimal money, cents are probably best. If you're looking for cash profit -- hmm. I focused mostly on halves, looking for silver, but they weren't as picked-over at the time. Quarters have been dry for decades, because they circulate heavily, and much of the silver was picked out by the end of the 1980 surge. We're also drowning in State/ATB quarters at this point. Dimes will turn up some silver, but not much (maybe one coin per $100?). Nickels may be fruitful, both in older dates (even an occasional Buffalo) and silver war nickels. Then again, since I haven't been actively roll-hunting for a while, if you just read the threads here, you'll know as much as I do. :)[/QUOTE]
