I found an 1858 Flying Eagle cent in a Lincoln Cent roll about 2 years ago. I've haven't done much coin roll hunting since then, just now returning after about a 2 year absence! Best, Lastgold

I only search pennies and occasionally nickels now, but I found a 1893 IHC not too far back, and quite recently I found a 1912 D penny in G-4 condition. My oldest nickel find would be a very worn nickel from 1924. Awesome finds everybody! :D

Might as well give this another bump, seeing as how it's been dead for 1 1/2 years. If you didn't notice, I haven't gone through many dime, quarter, or half dollar rolls. My oldest are as follows: Cent: 1910 Nickel: 1914 Dime: 1965 Quarter: 1965 Half: 1971

I found a 1982 Washington commem half in a Kennedy roll a few years back.
By the way, what's the best technique for getting mixed coin rolls rather than newer rolls? I'm sure a relationship with bank tellers is helpful, but other suggestions?

The best technique for getting mixed coin rolls rather than newer rolls is probably to switch banks for picking up coins. I have three different banks that I get change from. One bank uses a carrier that normally has new solid date rolls. One bank most of the time has boxes of circulated coins brought in by the carrier. The other I just get the bags from the coin counting machines. No telling what you will get in them. It is usually a decent mix. Still Lookin
