SilverRoosevelt Pillar of the Community United States 917 Posts	Posted 08/08/2015 5:01 pm In an actual coin roll, the oldest I've found is a 1908 V nickel. In loose change, two 1891 Indian Head cents. I asked for more, but the cashier had no other IHC's in the till; I wonder if someone's collection was spent that day. Report this Post to the Staff

Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2519 Posts	Posted 08/13/2015 08:52 am I used to roll hunt pennies and since the first Canadian small cent was minted in 1920, it's not possible to find ones older then that. My oldest find is a corroded 1912 LWC. Report this Post to the Staff

skibdib Pillar of the Community United States 1157 Posts	Posted 09/08/2015 2:42 pm If I am not mistaken, the 1850 Seated Liberty dime I just posted in the dime thread is the oldest coin found in a roll based on this thread. :-) Still in shock to see something that old come out of a machine wrapped roll.

Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 09/08/2015 6:41 pm That is an amazing find on the 1850! I think the oldest coin I have ever heard of from a roll is a Roman copper in a penny roll that one of our members found a few years ago. Report this Post to the Staff
