I am really interested in the grand totals that some of you have found. I looked back and saw that Coppernickeldaddy had a complete list at 12,500 rolls and others have put grand totals.
I would love to look at the totals that people have and combine them. the total must be well over 30,000 rolls.
Thanks for all your posts

Well, I've only searched a bit over 1,200 rolls and only have 5 left for a complete circulation set.

I'll make my first chime in here...
I picked up 6 rolls the other day for the heck of it and nabbed a 1942-S and 1944-D. I wasn't looking for much else other than the silver. I did pick up about 2 or 3 from the 50s.

Welcome to the party Lukkyseven ..... I was hoping that you would eventually give roll searching a try as a fun way to enjoy the series. Great finds in your first attempt.  David
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art

well, thanks to you guys and all your great finds I have decided to go back to searching nickels.....will try to get some starting next week. I am lucky enough to have a bank teller/manager who will order several boxes for me on a reg basis. I want to try and fish out a few Henning Nickels

Still trying to find a Henning, but happy to report I finally managed to pull a worn 50D last night. Have been at it a year and a half and the 43D & 50D came in the last two weeks. Two left, 38D & 39D .... we'll see how long these take.. but it could be a while.

I got a $12 more and only one War Nickel from it. But not bad I suppose. I found 4 or 5 others from 40s n 50s. So not too bad I guess. Not cherry picking anything else though.

Just finished a $100 worth. About half CWR and the rest Brink's rolls. The CWR gave me 7 2009D's. Finally I found an '09.  The Brinks rolls gave me a '38D and a '26P.

Wow how nice is that ;). Are the 2009's hard to find? I have found a P and D so far, but only one of each. That's only going through about $60 worth of coins though.
