Pulling Coins From Circulation

Many still watch carefully. There are a lot of miscellaneous coins still poping up in change. The reasons are numerous. An example of the Bicentennial coins is at one time myself and a freind had a contest to see how many we could accumulate. Not long ago I asked at a coin show what anyone would give for them. One dealer said 0.24 as a joke but meaning no value. So I just took several hundred dollars worth to a bank. My freind took over a thousand dollars worth of those Bicentennial quarters to the bank. Peopl still cash in jars, cans, boxes of coins accumulating in their homes. Home robberies of coin collections and the crooks just spend the coins as coins. Just yesterday I dumped about 30 rolls of coins that I was saving for someday in the future but at my age, now serves no purpose. One person I know that is a coin dealer told me he occationally purposely throws a few old cents in change just for the fun of it.
Keep watching your change.

I chose wheat cents. I have saved every wheat I have received since the late 80's. I also look out for anything silver, War Nickels, Kennedy halfs, and Louisiana Purchase Nickels (Still trying to fill a coin tube). If the Presidential dollars or Sac's would circulate, I might save them too.

Wheat cents, silver/pre-1961 nickels, silver dimes and quarters, and Statehood Quarters are what I typically keep.

i find all kids of wheaties!! I thnk I have 2 gallon milk jugs of wheaties from circulation in 5 years....

I just pull silver coins. Wheaties just don't interest me, and frankly they aren't worth that much by the bucketful anyways. Unless, of course, there's a 1909-s vdb in there.

I can't pick just one:-)

I look at most of my change because I throw it in a jar and from time to time cash it in at he bank. I pull the Wheaties and silver. Mike

I pull more wheat cents than anything else, but I will save anything good and silver etc. I save Ike dollars when I get them, now they just come in dribbles and not downpours.
