<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kasia, post: 3262895, member: 31533&quot;]I can tell you from years of doing this, it is a fairly cheap hobby, because you either put back the money you are searching from to get more or you search it prior to having to put it back to pay bills. So anything you find is gravy. Yet also you do come across stupid things like rolls with one or more coins that are of no use for you. One quarter roll I got from a bank ended up having three dollars of it in Canadian quarters. So someone creatively got rid of those and I really don&#039;t usually go to Canada to use them. I think I did once, so I took my excess Canadian change to use there, but the cents did not work, so those all went into a charity thing at the Airport, hoping they were able to round them up and cash them in somehow. </p><p><br /></p><p>If you are looking to make money, the time and money you spend on going to get the rolls and return them, just in gas, may be more than you profit from them. But it is a nice hobby and luck does happen. The best one I got from my roll hunting, value wise so far, seems to have been a modern states quarter with a dropped letter error. It was a MS66 and I sold it for nearly 200.00. And even with this and some other minor (less profitable coins I&#039;ve found), I probably have spent all of this in gas over the years and in losing out on the few coins in rolls that are European, Canadian, etc. So really, no profit other than the interest and pleasure I&#039;ve gotten from this. Add in the cost of books for me to learn what to search for, I&#039;ve spent way more than it&#039;s given me back.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you are wanting to make some money through this, I suggest you get a minimum wage job. You will likely make much more money then.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
