it keeps growing into a never endless hunt, the more you find the more you'll need to search,  so best of luck and we will see you in coin roll hunters rehab...  you could find the best find ever and it wont slow your searching down..push it to the side and tear open another roll. until your wife says that's enough..  |

Yeah! Just got back with 4 boxes of Dirty Pennies!!  I predict 45 Wheats, 35 Canadians, 20 2009's, and a hand full of foreign coins! Hoping for my 9th Indian Head penny. I haven't gotten one in over a year and a half.  Edited by Mr Click

went to the bank,,she handed me a box of brand new pennies
I pushed them back at her and said "new no good"
she dsaid "what?" I said, in my best cavemanvoice
"new no GOOD!" "need used"
again she asked "what" I laughed..and told her
"you know I am collecting coins..how am I sposed to collect coins from new rolls?"
do you have any old coins in new boxs?
I could see the light above her head light up
OH!! OK...
she is trained...my work here is done
exchanged 8 rolls of nickels..looking for 2009 D and P
but I found 3 1942 nickels, 1-1941 and 1-1940
proud of the 42's

Oh boy! You know it's going to be a good box of pennies when you start out with 3 wheats in the first 3 rolls and the wheats are (1935,1937d, & 1939) |

Sometimes I go through the rolls and get frustrated, just made it through my 3rd roll of cents tonight and find this 1913 Lincoln.  It just feeds the addiction. |
