Oldest coins from rolls:

Dollar coin: 1922 Peace dollar, but it was not in a roll.
Half: 1942 Walking Liberty (Oldest loose half find is a 1940 Walking Liberty)
No silver quarters (I searched about $50 in quarters maybe two times ever. I think it's a waste)
Dime: 1941 Mercury (I rarely search dimes)
Nickel: 1918 Buffalo
Cent: 1911D Wheat

I did buy a "Unsearched" roll of nickels off ebay and it had a Shield nickel worth $22 in it. If that dont count I just started searching sealed boxes of coins fromt he bank and I have found the following.

Penny: 1906 Indian Head cent
Nickel: 1903 Liberty Head
Dime: 1958 Silver

One of my most recent Sealed box of Pennies from the bank gave me 138 Wheats. Yes 138 from 1 single box. :)

Excellent!
