Ok,so just to clarify, any coin that enters my house is for my son when he's older. 15-20 years from now. And even if it's "spend" change it just goes into his piggy safe lol. So change is a hobby to to me but a savings for my son, win win. I'll save the roll and pick out the best
Think it's time I look into Canadian coin albums.im enjoying the hobby and want to start something for the future.

I would keep the very best two or three (in 2x2s) then throw the rest in the piggy bank.

Thanks guys, I need to get some coin protectors still, I'm not sure if the coin and card shop downtown is open or not. I actually haven't been there in years. I used to go look through the junk coin bin there back when I knew nothing mayb il have better luck now knowing more. If there open I'll grab some protectors and see what I can find while I'm there. And ya true say about Ms 70 coins in a circulation roll. Would be basically impossible. Definitely some ms65+ in there though it looks like they were unwrapped and then re rolled right away. They were in one of those machine wrapped rolls from the bank. I normally don't bother looking through those ones.

Does anyone know the difference between the machine rolled coins in those tight rolls and the normal circulation rolls? Does the bank roll them in these rolls or does it happen somewhere else?

While roll searching in the past I haven't really roll searched for a while now but when I did I found a few MS-67 coins from the 1960's forward a few MS-66 in the 1950 rolls. In my experience with roll searching you will usually find a couple MS-65's in a tight unsearched roll of coins, not always I've had rolls where I was lucky to find a MS-64. Look for the BU bank or Brinks rolls (Tight rolls unsearched). But that's not to say you cant find nice coins in tube rolls I once purchased a tube roll of 1956 25 cent coins and to my surprise I found and got graded 5 X MS-65's, same as a 1965 tube roll of dimes I found a couple MS-65's and 1 MS-65 UHC.

Happy Hunting

Thanks for the input. Most of these tight rolls from the bank have nothing ore 2001 in them but I find these rolls have alot less circulation marks on then. I think I have found a few high grade coins while searching but didn't bother to keep them. I am going to get an album to start saving the best shape coins I can find by year. And then try and find as many varieties as I can for each year. Does anyone have a recommendation for Canadian coin books by year.

If you have any MS-65 coins study and compare them with the coins in a said roll to try to find the best coins in your roll.

When I was roll searching I would find the best 10 coins from each roll put them aside in a separate pile to go through later.
When you are finished going through the rolls then go through the 10 coins from each pile if more than one pile and narrow them down to the best 5 from each pile, then again go through them and select the best 3 left in each pile then again for the best coin then send to get graded.

Edit: Try not to put finger prints on your coins especially copper coins, always hold coins on edge between your thumb and pointing finger and spin coin around to check both Obverse and Reverse tilt the coin in different angles to pick up light scratches and small nicks in the fields especially in front of the face as this will hurt your grades.

But keep the last 5 from each pile and put in 2x2 holders and put in a binder with clear plastic pages and put 2x2 holders in the clear pages in your binder for later years I wouldn't buy a book for them.

Ok I'll pick one up, I can always do my own labels. And I have medical gloves from work that I use when touching high grade looking coins. Is there gloves that can cause damage? Like I use about 20 different gloves different materials. No latex.

Cotton gloves work best, I think rubber gloves could still transfer oils/grease. I personally dont use gloves unless I'm holding proof coins and when I do I use cotton.

I just hold by the rim of the coin and never touch the obverse or reverse feilds for circulation and roll hunting.

I'll have to grab some, and every pair of gloves I use are only used once then thrown out, even with gloves I try not to touch the obverse and reverse.

I agree with a lot of the advice above and will add, don't go with a book. Get stack's of 2X2's, 1 stack for each coin diameter. Don't put dimes in a silver dollar 2X2 is what I'm getting at. Then get the 20 pocket 2X2 pages for a 3 ring binder. The fit is convenient and adaptable. Storage is easy. I use zipper closing 3 ring binders to limit the escapee's. Another hint...don't be afraid to add a note to self on the 2X2, it will trigger memories in the future. I pulled a new loon from my Mint ticket one time. Reading the note always makes me smile. And you can't go wrong with a flat staple stapler.

For coins less than halves, I use 1 1/2 X 1 1/2's holders that the fit 30 to a page. I even use them for my large cents and there's still room to write what you need on the holder. They should be good for 1 thru 25 cents. Holding 1/3 more coins per page makes a huge difference when you have lots of them to put in albums.

By the time I'm as old as some of you guys I'll probably have 100 filled binders lol. So that's good advice @okiecoiner
