EDOG63 New Member United States 32 Posts	Posted 06/07/2011 12:19 am Hey I was wondering if anyone has ever found a franklin doing this? I started a Kennedy half collection today. Yesterday alot you of suggested roll hunting and something about it is addicting. I got 4 rolls of half dollars, and got some nice coins for a good start. Then I went nuts bought the first volume of Cherry Pickers Guide and tommorow plan on finding a bank that will hopefully sell me a box of 50 rolls of pennies. God I feel like some kinda junkie. I love it. Edog Report this Post to the Staff

I do not think it would be as easy today, but I feel it is still possible.

michaeln1306 Valued Member United States 262 Posts	Posted 06/12/2011 10:45 am I think what makes it fun and and exciting for me other then the obvious of finding cool stuff is, knowing your not getting cheated. I can walk in a bank and pay face for as much or as little as I want. Worst thing that can happen is I find nothing and return the money back to circulation.This is the part of the hobby that really does it for me. Knowing I pay zero dollars to have fun! Other then gas to get there..... Report this Post to the Staff
