So this has to be my most unusual, and perhaps best, individual find ever searching cent rolls. I bought $10 worth of CWR from one of my banks last week, but just got to searching them today. I always weigh the rolls before opening them to see which ones most likely are going to produce wheat cents - heavier rolls obviously produce more (usually).

Anyways, one of rolls only weighed 120.5 grams. I figured it was short a few cents at least. Well, it turned out to be 8 cents short, but there was also a dime in the roll, so I ended up Two Cents ahead. There was also a roll that weighed 116.86 grams.

At first I figured the deal was the same with this roll. Sure enough, I open it and see a dime on the end. I proceed to pour the roll out and it appears to be all dimes!!!

Upon closer inspection, something towards the bottom of the pile looks "weird"... at first I thought it was a Barber dime... but no... it was a 3 cent piece!

It turned out to an 1867 - yes, a 154 year old coin!!! Far and away the oldest coin I've ever found CRH. The "penny" roll actually had 51 coins - there were exactly 50 dimes in it.

As for the other 19 rolls, there was another dime along with 4 wheaties (including a 1934) and 12 assorted modern S mint coins.

Amazing find on the 3-cent coin!

I searched for a $18 Pennies but I founds a 7 Wheats Cents and 3. Canadian Cents.
HAPPY HUNTING!!!
