I finished several series by CRH. In the order of: JFK 1964-2014 (without S-mint) Jefferson 1938-2012 Benjamin Franklin (1948-1963) Ike Large dollar Statehood Quarters (P and D mint each) Lincoln Cent (1941-2009) Working on Rosie dime (1946-1963 missing 47-s). Buffalo nickel (1913-1937, missing many) Walking Liberty (46 of 66) Lincoln Cent (1909-1940, missing many). The easiest but still fun would be Jefferson set; I only searched 54 boxes in one month in a holiday season and finished the 1938-1962). If you can get bank to order halves for you, try that. |

I assembled complete circulated P and D mint state and ATB Quarters from CRHing, and also completed a set of Lincoln Memorial cents (minus the 1970-S small date), Jefferson nickels, and Kennedy half dollars from CRHing. It can certainly be done, with your only costs being time and the literal face value of whatever you keep from the rolls you search. Edited by skyshark124

The hardest is pennies, the chances you that you will find the 1909s vdb, 1909 s, 1914 d, 1922 plain, and the 1924d, and astronomically low. To my knowledge, only one 1909s vdb has been been found in a roll. *cough* cough* 1931s, 1912s, and 1926s *cough* cough* Yeah, Jeffersons and state good quarters are a nice and simple choices, if you have the patience.

I can't believe it hasn't been said yet, but Susan B Anthony dollars!  I've actually completed a set of these from roll searching. Including proofs! (well, all except the 1981-S T2 Proof) |

I tried with Anthony dollars but never had much luck. Searched a couple thousand worth of small dollars and couldn't even get the '99-D, let alone the NIFC issues.
Plus, it's frustrating to sift through hundreds of '79s looking for the elusive 99s or 81s--not enough to the series to keep it interesting, IMO.

Why would you find Proofs in circulated rolls? Same goes for Buffalo nickels walking liberty? I used to search a lot and never found anything close to that old. is there some better place to get rolls than from a bank |

There wasn't any 1999 s. Just a 1999 p proof on the dollars.
