Cool Lincoln Roll Finds (From Bank Rolls) - Post Yours!

Forty-five rolls into my bag and thus far I've found six Canadian and six wheats. I'll give a final tally when I complete the bag.

found last night also two 1955 d lincolns

I went through 5 boxes today that had been piling up.

I found a 1910, 1911, 3 1919S, a couple from the 1920's and 1930's, a couple of older Caandians, a mint set token, and my first Indian Head cent in a long long long long time. As a matter of fact I haven;t found a V nickel either in about as long either

Oh and a 1954.

What makes a plain old 1954 so special? It is the last one that I needed to fill the hole in my Dansco that isn't a key date.

I get 2 boxes of nickels and 2 boxes of cents a week to go with my halves.

Since cents have the lowest investment dollarwise they get pushed to the bottom of the pile when I have free time as the rest I need to recycle to keep the roll hunting fund going.

I have run out of a surplus boxes to search on more than one occasion which still baffles me.

Someone once posted they paid their unemployed brother in law 10% of the dump to cash in $600 in cents. I told myself SAY WHAT?

Then one time I had to haul in $150 in cents to a bank and I told myself now I get it.

Quite strange to find to formerly Encased Cents in the same box!

You have a system Jack...and it's working!! Awesome coins you've posted over the months I've been here! Volume will certainly increase those fun finds, but time is limited on this end, so I have to optimize rather than maximize.

On heavier loads, I've carried in two boxes of nickels and a box of cents and recall, I won't do that again. I limit my returns to a more comfortable load when negotiating the double doors, etc.

St R - not a bad yield at all really. Cant all be solid LWCs, but it's fun dreaming!!

Good luck on the hunt!
