Thehuntress77 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 01/18/2020 05:37 am Hi. I have been saving coins since I was a child. Now I am interested in coin roll hunting. Is there a list I can find somewhere online that will tell me which coins I should be keeping for pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters (Washington's, State, Parks, etc...), half dollars, dollars (Susan B's, Presidential, Sacagawea's, etc...)? Also are there certain $2 dollar bills that are more valuable than others, if so where can I find out which ones? Is there any denomination of paper money that is worth looking for, and if so what would that be? If anyone can help me with this, I would be extremely grateful. Thank you everyone and good luck hunting! Report this Post to the Staff

I was just hoping someone could give me that information instead of me randomly looking up on different sites and not knowing whether it is accurate. Report this Post to the Staff

In my experience, these are more likely to be found than the pre-1964 dimes and quarters, because they don't look as different. They are VERY easy to spot because all of them have a large mint mark (P, D or S) above the dome of Monticello, and no other nickels do. Happy hunting, and let us know how it goes!
