Finding a nickel in a cent roll would be HIGHLY unusual since it's so much bigger. I have never found a nickel in a cent roll yet. In fact, the only off denomination coin I've found are dimes.

Picked up a Loomis box (no holes) and it had 25 mixed rolls and 25 2014-D rolls, so I went back and grabbed a second box which was all mixed.

One of the more fun searches in a while.

3750 coins

Copper was higher than I've seen lately at around 21%
3 Canadian 98, 00, 06
A good handful of very nice AU 60s and 70s
28 LWC --easily my record (two rolls had 3 each)

Got all excited to see 10 customer rolls... First roll = not even a copper... 10 rolls = 10 1981 and 10 1980 that must have been left in by mistake.... I feel the definition of dumped on.

Sorry to hear that CLS - when that happens, variety hunting becomes the primary focus for me.

rd - nice haul! I like it when I stumble on a box with nice LWC returns. Memorable.

As I started to realize the wheats were there I got greedy and wanted to pull a nice/rare one but it was apparent pretty quickly that it was going to be all 40s and 50s.

...then again I haven't had that "once in a lifetime" box yet so I can still look forward to that.

Bad Thad:

years ago (before joining this forum, like maybe 20 years ago or so) I heard of someone finding a gold coin in a penny roll, think it was a quarter eagle. Now that would be something!

So I opened a roll of pennies in my register yesterday and it was all wheat cents. I bought the roll and went through them later that night. Found a very nice 1909 VDB and many in the teens and 20's. Made my day!

Yeah, I cringe a bit when picking up a box. I've been fortunate the last few months. Better luck next time skibs!

I always am scared to peek through the holes in the box to see if they are new pennies when I pick them up... whats the most likely time of year you are to get a box of new coins?
