Small Dollar roll searching has normally not been my thing, but one of my local banks had $349 in them in early January, including one roll of SBAs... I took all of them as I noticed right away three of the rolls were mint wrapped (more on those below), and six were BU sets/rolls in Littleton plastic tubes. Those turned out to be: 2009-2015 P or D Mint Native American, a 2007-2012 24 coin set, and rolls of Cleveland I, Cleveland II, Harrison, and Arthur.
The other four rolls were all common-date (2007-2009 dated coins in String and Sons paper) which basically sell for $30 on
ebay (not worth the effort when you factor in fees, so those went to another branch as a $100 deposit)...
The SBAs had one good coin - an impaired proof 1979-S!


The mint-wrapped rolls were better dates - 2013-D (McKinley), 2014-D (Native American), and, best of all, 2014-D (Harding)!



These three rolls sell for a good premium on
ebay ($40-$45 for the first two, $70-$75 for the Harding)... The Littleton sets sell for about $35-40 or so.
So, my first experience with buying small dollar coins turned out to be a decent one.
CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!
