Bowfin Valued Member United States 296 Posts	Posted 09/19/2008 8:47 pm Finished sorting a box of pennies and a box of nickels. Found this Buffalo. I think it is a '20. Also found this Wheat. Nothing special, just nice to find a wheat that still has some red. Report this Post to the Staff
lincolncollector Valued Member United States 373 Posts	Posted 09/19/2008 9:43 pm I find more old Jefferson nickels than any other coin. Jefferson nickels from the 40's thru 60's, especially the 1964. Rarely, do I find a wheatie. The oldest quarters I see are from the 60's. I don't bother with dimes because they are just too small to read. I never find halves. Report this Post to the Staff
coinsrus Valued Member United States 227 Posts	Posted 09/19/2008 9:57 pm With penny roll searching seems to be completely random. Bought 2 boxes last weekend 1 box contained 1 IHC 10 wheats and 6 canadians the other 2 wheats 3 canadian. Never more than one in a roll so probably not someone getting rid of collection why aren't they more evenly spread out? Since it is random I would think they would be but I'm not going to argue with those results. Report this Post to the Staff
Elimist Pillar of the Community United States 632 Posts	Posted 09/20/2008 01:47 am I'm now a manager at the store I work at instead of a carhop, so I see a lot less change nowadays. But the other day a fellow employee had a roll of nickels bound up in masking tape. I immediately thought "senior citizen getting rid of old change" so I bought the roll from her. All the nickels were fairly new actually, except one no date buffalo. So I do consider that my first wild buffalo. Report this Post to the Staff
florida Valued Member United States 417 Posts	Posted 09/21/2008 4:51 pm While filling the safe at work, I tend to check the quarter rolls and found a 1964 and 1954-D in one box. Plus, a 2008 Canadian. Report this Post to the Staff

Elimist Pillar of the Community United States 632 Posts	Posted 09/29/2008 01:57 am I work at a fast food job where the employees serving the food act as their own register. They carry little devices known as "coin changers" that carry easily dispensible quarters/dimes/nickels/cents in metal tubes. The tubes have slots on the side to view the coins. We have about seven changers. I was looking at the reeds of the quarters and dimes to see if I can find any silver. 1953 roosie 1964 roosie 1964 quarter An amazing circulation silver find. Honestly amazing. Report this Post to the Staff

Bowfin Valued Member United States 296 Posts	Posted 10/01/2008 6:03 pm While I was picking up my box of halves I was eyeing the teller's coin tray and saw that tell tale silver band 5 coins from the top in the dimes. I asked to see it and it was a '46. A little scruffy but she swapped me a clad for it. Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 20042 Posts	Posted 10/02/2008 11:25 am Everyday I throw my change into a basket, then I periodically go though it all to look for coins of interest. I dunno how in the world I got this coin, it's about the size a quarter....but it was in my basket. LOL Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
