Some friends of ours have a big gallon sized pickle jar that they throw pocket change into to fund a future trip for their family to Disneyland. They let me search it and I had a blast! I found a Canadian 2010 penny, an UNC red 68-S, and a 64-D silver dime! In addition to that, I found 4 common circulated wheats and I pulled all the coppers out. I bought everything I wanted out of the jar using my stash of junk Zincolns that I had already searched.  The funny thing was the dime was one of the very last coins I pulled out of that jar.

My oldest and best find ever in searching rolls of cents was a 1899 Indian Head cent! I was so happy!

Went to my bank to cash in my pennies today and the teller guy asked me if I wanted more (different) rolls, so I said sure. I bought a roll of quarters and the rest pennies. Scored 3 USA quarters 1973 2003 Missouri Corps of Discovery 2005 Oregon Crater Lake Out of $3 in penny rolls I got about 45 Lincolns and a very black or brown 1967 US Dime!! looks like corroding action happening I see hints of copper but metal surface looks to be silvery colored. Was very surprized to find an old dime in the penny rolls ( no mint mark that I can spot) Oldest cent was 1959 Only S cent was 1971 Haven't had a chance yet to look closely at any of todays coins. Don't know if I scored a variety or anything special yet ;)

9090sportscards, I guessing you mean 1911-S. And that is a semi-key date....worth a few bucks anyway.Hard to tell exactly with the small pics. Nice find though !
