Picked up 8 rolls of quarters. As well as one roll having an extra quarter  , notable finds were a 2000 Philippine Peso, 2011D US Olympic ATB, 2009 colored men's hockey quarter, and a well-worn 1940 silver quarter.  Edited by rusty_f

Dumped my pennies today but the other bank is closed on Sundays so couldn't pickup anymore. Ran into another coin roll hunter at the bank which was pretty neat. I always thought I was the only one in my area doing this but this guy hits a lot of banks and searches a lot more volume than I do. It was fun swapping coin pictures and talking to someone else who likes coins.

Went through 68 rolls of pennies today. Found my best George V penny so far, a 1929 which is probably AU-MS62 RB. It must have come out of someone's collection. Also found a 1967 1 centavo from Columbia a few Canadian from the 1940's and 14 wheat cents.

I found that blessed vending machine that gives out all quarters, rather than loonies.
The highlights were a Kansas-D quarter (unfortunately a duplicate) and a fairly nice (but not uncirculated) 1977 quarter. There were also many uncirculated Vancouver 2010 quarters, maybe from someone getting rid of a folder-ful? I also got the usual stack of commemoratives, but no 1973s...

I got 2 rolls of quarters... nothing special, it's going to be hard finding those last three quarters for my non-silver date set.

@DaytR: I'd say it was in lightly circulated condition. Filled a hole in my nickel set.
