In a roll of cents, I just got a plastic fake Lincoln Cent. Likely just from a toy cash register or something. Recently I also found a felt wad (looks like a pool cue tip), along with 3 dimes and some Canadian and Bahamian cents. What are some of the oddball things you have found in rolls while CRHing? I am unsure if this topic was previously covered or not, so please forgive me if it has. PS: I am really enjoying this Forum since recently joining. Edited by Centurion

I recently found a plastic poker chip in a cent roll. No idea how that wasn't rejected by the machine. Glad you like the forum, Centurion!  Edited by wheatchaser140

Didn't someone hit gold a few years back in CA? It was no one from the forum, but a smaller gold coin. I vaguely remember this from a news article, or had a dream about it.....

Kritler, I know what you are talking about. Someone found a 2 1/2 dollar gold piece in a cent roll. Can someone post the link? I'm not good at this stuff. I believe it is on page 11 of the CRH forum.

Last May I was in St Louis and picked up 10 rolls of quarters, mostly to find Philadelphia minted State Quarters to complete my album. Living on the west coast, it is hard to find P-minted coins. Since bank rolls are clear plastic now, not paper, I began to look over the rolls for anything that stands out. I found one! This coin didn't have the copper band around it as did the other 39 coins in the roll. My heart jumped thinking it is a pre-1964 quarter. I tore in to the roll only to find a 2005 Canadian 25 cent piece. Oh well, at least the Canadian is near BU condition. I was able to fill 75% of my Philadelphia album with the St. Louis bank rolls. I only had 5 P-minted State Quarters prior. |

I once found a live silverfish in a roll of nickels. He fell out and started scurrying around on my desk when I broke the roll open.

I remember reading a member found a tooth a couple of years ago. I think it was a bicuspid.
