Over the past couple weeks I jumped back into the roll searching again.....buildin' albums....silver huntin'.....etc. etc.
Still working on my Jefferson nickel album.....early years being very difficult to find.
As I go through the rolls......I'm finding a LOT of Westward Series Nickels ! I think I could make about 10 more albums of those now if I wanted to !

Added a nice large handfull of Wheat Cents to my, roughly 7,000 Wheat cent collection !
A couple more Buffalo's (one nice one.....the other is a dateless.)
Some interesting foreign coins.....
I've truly forgotten how fun roll searching can be ! (at least when you have some level of success anyway)
Also got $80.00 worth of Halves today and found a Proof, 2- 90% Silvers, 1- 40% Silver, an incredible looking '76, and a 2004 P and a 2004 D........(very nice for me since I had previously been SO skunked on the halves !)

Congrats! I filled a 1974-current Whitman for my buddy while I was searching his pocket change. Most are very nice, red BU coins.

Very cool! All those filled holes are nice to look at. I've got 4 cents left to finish mine, all pulled from pocket change.

OH MAN ! ...... It was SOOOO much fun !

I think I must have over 100 Wheats added to my collection now.....but guess what !

I FOUND THE ELUSIVE Indian Head cent LAST NIGHT IN A ROLL ! (1907...might go better than an F-12 maybe !)

..... ......

Among the neat finds as well......found a 1910 Wheat (G-4 or so)
In the last two weeks of this resurgence in roll hunting for me.....I've searched about 6 boxes of Cents. One and a half boxes of Halves (produced 5 Silvers...2 being 90%ers).....and one and a half boxes of nickels.
Now I'm all out of rolls to search !
The nickels have proven the most difficult to "help complete my album). I already have a bag of the War Nickels (every year and all P's, D's, & S's many times over ! ) It's just the other "older" common dates that I'm having trouble acquiring.
But, you know, it's the little surprises along the way the make this so much fun ! .......and completing albums to boot !
I'm anxious to order another box of halves.......but I think the other denominations have been SO fruitful....that I may have to stick with these ! (they're SO MUCH CHEAPER TOO !)
I enhanced my collection, but moreso my interest, greatly over these past two weeks.....don't have the money to "collect" in any other way with difficult financial times right now.....so this is awesome !
Got a 1974-2000 Lincoln Memorial album to go with my first one (1909-1973) for Christmas.....but, I'm disappointed by two main things with it.
One: It has the modern "S" proofs in there ! ...... .. (and I can't afford to collect those for the foreseeable future !
Two: It stops in the year 2000 ! .... (there are plenty of "blank" holes...even a whole "blank" page with the holes, but no writing in there of the dates and mintmarks after 2000.....so that sucks.
It's a nice "Official U.S. Mint album" though.....like my first one.....maybe I should just "transfer" them to a Dansco......dunno.
