I just picked up a few bank-wrapped rolls of nickels from my local bank today. One of the rolls had the following in it: one dateless Liberty (my first ever), one dateless Buffalo, one each of 1941, 1946, 1948 and a 2014-S Proof! I wonder what the odds are of all of these ending up in the same bank-wrapped roll..... I've gotta go back to that branch!  |

Finding new, old and very old coins in the same roll is just amazing! Enjoy!  |

 If that roll had contained a War Nickel and a washer, I'd call it the most diverse nickel roll ever! I have to believe the odds of that are very low. Nice score. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020
In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020

Unbelievable! Must've been a collection dump mixed in with normal stuff. I opened the other rolls (10 in total) and found the following: 2 more Buffalos (1920, 1926 - both with barely legible dates), a 1943-P Warnickel in XF (still had luster), 47, 54-D, 56-D, 58-D, 59-D (3), 69-S and a 2009-D. See Pic attached. Not only that, I opened 20 rolls of cents and found 17 wheats (see other pic). In all of my many years of CRH-ing, this is one of the better days. The final pic is the whole bunch together.    |

I've had amazing results with wheat pennies the last few months. I go to a local Bank of America and clean them out of any customer rolls normally once a week. They hold them for me so they don't have to ship them out to loomis. This week scored over 150 wheats in $20 of pennies. Had similar results about 2 months ago, both had same wrappers wondering if it's from the same hoard. Found a few 1909 wheats too. Also found a few original bank wrapped rolls of early 1980S cents, no rare errors unfortunately.
