John77 Pillar of the Community United States 2917 Posts	Posted 07/18/2023 06:01 am Keep fishing, AllSeasons... sometimes the all copper, non-wheat cent rolls can be fruitful in their own right. I've found many of those over the past 7 1/2 years and they often have included lots of "S" mint coins and or Uncirculated coins. CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years!

They're not as cool as Wheat Cents, but I'll take them! Excellent!

AllSeasons Valued Member United States 397 Posts	Posted 07/30/2023 01:59 am On Friday, I got 20 customer rolls that a nice teller at our local branch was saving for me. Some of the rolls were pretty dirty and in those old pink wrappers, which is always a good sign. I've done 4 rolls so far, so they are all copper! Every single one of them. There was only one Wheat cent, though, 1944, if I remember correctly, and one Canadian, 1966, if I remember correctly. So while these won't be Wheat cent rich, I'm thinking most of them will be 100% copper, which I still consider to be a nice find. Will report back if I find anything interesting. Cheers!

John77 Pillar of the Community United States 2917 Posts	Posted 07/30/2023 06:24 am Building rapport with tellers definitely has its benefits! I like to pull "S" mints and high grade coins from those rolls, even if they're not Wheat cent rich... BTW, make sure you invest in a small scale to weigh your rolls... if they're all copper (and not missing any coins) they all should weigh in the neighborhood of 155-156 grams.

One time when I was searching a full box of pennies, I found 156 or 157 Wheaties, all from one box. Mostly common dates, but I'll take it still! To this day, I have never found more than that.
