Yes good luck finding one I have got two full rolls so far of 1964 and have not found a extra waterline yet. ('')

What else should I be looking for I have been keeping all up to 99 and some 2000 2001 and 2006 but just for there metal content.

So now I'mgoing to be looking for 1990 bare belly and 1964 extra waterline what other rare ones are there?

I was searching for a long time for bare bellies. I bought one from a member here and right after that I found 2 more. That is the way it goes I guess.

Finished 10 rolls of MWR of nickels that I have gotten out so long ago that I can't remember when. I have been extremely busy this last month and had hardly any time to roll hunt. Average for machine rolls but not very great:

19 nickel, 1972-1981
34 cupronickel, 1982 and later
3 VE-day commemoratives
8 American, ranging from 1974 to 2014D

I also have 10 rolls of MWR of dimes to go through, but I've put those on hold to search some more nickels; I am trying to get some more VE-day nickels for an upcoming trip to Europe in May celebrating VE-day.

Recently finished 17 rolls of nickels (all the bank had). Two were consumer "wrapped" (the shell plastic type) and the other 15 were machine wrapped. The machine wrapped rolls were either plated steel or pure nickel. 11 were completely plated steel, 1 was 40% pre-1982, 2 were 75% pre-1982, and the last roll was 87.5% pre-1982.

(Pics are bad)

Totals:
5 VE-day commemoratives
16 1982 and later
115 1950-1981
31 American (All came entirely out of a single plastic CWR)

-----

Powered through another 15 rolls of MWR nickels today (I'm a slow searcher). 100% plated steel , surprisingly a first for MWR of nickels for me. However, I pulled 9 VE-day commemoratives so I now have a full roll.

I searched a box of quarters tonight. No silver, but some nice finds. A decent 2001 no-p a really nice 1991 and a few 1983s. There were a couple horse quarters and a couple decent large denticle 1978s. I found a bunch of really nice olympic coins with very clean fields and some good quality US coins as well.

Nothing super but some nice hole fillers. It felt good to be back in the hunt.

I am stoked. Found a bank that would sell me pennies. They only had three boxes so I took them all. Hope that there is something good in there. I am still looking for a 1985 pointed 5

Went to the bank to deposit a couple cheques and they had pennies so I couldn't resist. Picked up 4 bags and 30 rolls (~230 rolls). Went through one of the bags with older Canadian finds being: 1942, 1950, 1951, 1957(3), 1958. Found 6 wheat cents including 1919D, and 1926. Found lots of foreign coins: one 5 Euro cent and one 2 Euro cent, UK pennies from 1971 and 2011, 1976 2 Pfennig from Germany, a 1 yuan coin from Taiwan, 2010 10 sentimo from Philippines, 2011 one cent from Barbados, and a 2013 2 Grosze from Poland. Found another 2006 magnetic no logo which was nice because it had been a while. Also found a few dimes and an American nickel.

I also went to two banks today that I hadn't been to in a while(new job taking my CRH time) and got 22 rolls of pennies. The tellers that I delt with said they had really seen a decrease in the amount of pennies coming in to them. I will let you know if I find anything good.

Nice find on that 2006 mag no-logo O-train. I haven't found another one in a while either

Thanks, I found a couple right off the bat when I started CRH but not many since.

Went through another of the bags and the 30 rolls with older Canadian finds being: 1947, 1949, 1951, 1952, 1953, 1955, 1956(3), 1957(5), 1958, and 1959. Also found 7 wheat cents, 2 UK pennies (1976 and 1988), and a 2001 One Cent from Trinidad and Tobago someone left in the coin counting machine hopper. Found another of the metal 1 PLAY MONEY with the maple leaf as well.

There is nothing rare about this one, but in person it is beautiful with the gold and purple.

I just finished the 1st stage of a box of pennies I had sitting around. I don't know if it was somebody's stash, or someones dumps. There were at least 10 rolls of 1964 and below, and I will get the microscope out later to check them. There were also about 5 rolls of US pennies that ranged from wheats to current, and I even spotted 2 different 2009 varieties.
