At work today I was taking rolls of pennies out of a box when I noticed that 2 of the rolls had nice '59 enders. I normally do not search pennies at work because I just don't have the time. I made an exception this time for obvious reasons.

Here's what I found in those two rolls.

Cool-Lincoln-Roll-Finds-From-Bank-Rolls----Post-Yours!

All BUs! Not bad!

Breakdown:

1960 x 2
1968-S
1970-D
1959 x 10

One of the '59s has some gunk on it. Nothing a little acetone won't clear up.

I think that it is the same as real estate. Location, Location, Location.

I have found 15-1999's, 94-1998's and 75-2000's. At least that is what I have now. I have given a few of the 98's and 00's away.

That could very well be. Also given that you said you had 11 $50 bags to go through a few posts back, may be another. In 55,000 coins your bound to get results.

BTW.......have you sent any in for grading yet?

Sorry BernieZ. I'm surprised being in N.J. you haven't found something. It just seems many of them have landed in central KY, although I did find 2 from a batch I got coming through Alabama.

Keep looking and good luck.

Nope. Not a single wheat to be found in those two rolls.

Curiosity got the better of me today, so I made sure to set aside some time and go through more or the pennies from the same box. I searched through 13 rolls and came up with this:

Cool-Lincoln-Roll-Finds-From-Bank-Rolls----Post-Yours!

Breakdown:

1940
1960 x 3
Darth Maul penny, date unknown
1959 x 45

Again, all BU with the exception of the '40 and the Maul.

After lunch, I decided to dive back in. I searched another 10 rolls of pennies.

Results:
Cool-Lincoln-Roll-Finds-From-Bank-Rolls----Post-Yours!

Breakdown:

1956-D
1968-S
1970-D x 2
1959 x 45

All BU except for the '56 wheatie.


I brought one unopened roll home with and will search it this evening. Tomorrow I will go through the last 20 rolls and see what I come up with.

Did another box tonight. One box pennies, one box nickels. This time, I do believe that the pennies won!

I pulled 21 wheats, and an indian head! My first IH and a semi key at that!

Wheats: 17, 35, 37. 6 common 40s, and 12 common 50s.

Indian Head: 1909!!

I think that is Savage Opress and not Darth Maul.
