Not finding a lot lately but did pull another 1988 RDV-006 yesterday, a 1919-s and 1925-s on Sunday

Hey, it's been a couple days. You all still searching?
Anyways, I had a nice box today. Found 66 wheats total. All were in VF-XF condition, and all were common dates ranging from 1940-1958. Still pretty nice.
My favorite find though was my first Canadian 1967 Centennial penny, with the dove! I've now got a complete 1958-present Canadian penny set from roll searching. And that's saying something when you're in Texas!

Found a 1975 S today in rolls. How do these get into rolls...aren't they only proofs after 1974? What would the value be? Can tell it was struck deeper than usual but has very minor wear.

That's definitely a proof, Pat.
If it's been circulated, then it's no more than a few cents. If it's just like new, it's worth maybe a couple dollars.

Cool beans. Really have become addicted to this penny roll search stuff. Started a couple of months ago and already have $125 in copper a 43 from a teller, zinc from another teller and 2 indian heads...4 or 5 counter stamps. Really fun stuff.

Not very high. I've found six proofs in circ.. Five of them in one roll. Someone cashed in a collection.

Did a box and got 11 wheats, the oldest being 1940 nothing special I checked for wams and cams as well for the first time and got none I started a Lincoln error searching thread you guys should check out and post on. I figured if all the errors were together it would be easier for us all to learn what to look for. Post pics, info, about anything having to do with error Lincoln cents.

I didn't find this in a roll. After going through the change in my pocket from grocery shopping yesterday this was here.   Nothing too special but a nice surprise.

Searched 4 boxes over the weekend. Light on the wheats again, and all common dates. For the 4th time in less than 2 months I found a batch of clean shiny 1962 and 1962D's. There were a couple '62, '63 and '64, but predominately '62 all 4 times.  I can't get my camera to take a pic that does them justice. They stuck out big time when I broke open the rolls.

Bowfin - I found the same in the last box I did. It was light on wheats, but I found a number of brilliant 60's LMCs. It was almost like someone opened a mint roll and dumped them in the coin counter.
On another note, I got about $10 worth of 2011'P shield pennies (approx 20 full rolls) in the box I just opened. I have not opened them. Do you all keep those for the future? If so, how many? I have some 2010 and a 2011 rolls already (both P). Do people sometimes trade a roll of Ps for Ds? Any insight is appreciated.
