90% of what I search are cents, so mine would be a 1911 Matte proof cent I found in a bank roll. (I and a local dealer think it's genuine, but I'm sending it to ANACS soon to make it official)

Haven't gotten great stuff like many people here, but 3 1974-D DDO halves, some silver, and a very nice 1999-S Connecticut clad proof quarter. |

Back in the day I scored a roll of franklins in a box with a good number of 40%ers and JFK 90%ers, now days not too much to brag about.

RealPeso, not too much to brag about?! That's a killer find, ESPECIALLY for nowadays. I think all I've found recently is one 40%. I think my best finds were an 1888 cent out of a roll and a the box of nickels in which I found two V nickels in seperate rolls. What are the odds of that? |

Found a bank box of halves with 45 90%ers and 75 40%ers. Nothing crazy other than that.

What are the odds of that Hey mitchhailey, Sorry, I meant nowadays as in recently I haven't found anything to brag about but that franklin find was a few years ago, definitely was a killer find. |

1902 Barber Half. This was my first time searching halves and I only bought ten rolls to start off so it was complete luck. It was actually the last coin I needed to complete my Whitman 9046 20th Century Type folder so I was happy.

That's a tough one for me to answer. I search mostly cent rolls and I find a lot of "goodies". Like bar on columns,RPM's,DDO's etc.
But I guess my best find to date is a 1970-S small date that I posted here a few days ago

Mine are the Walker's and Franklin's I have found in half rolls, and the 1902 IHC. |

Pulled an 1892 IHC a couple weeks ago and just this morning pulled a ONE PENNY, how they got that big coin in the cent roll I don't know. |

I have not roll searched in a long time. My best run was in the early to mid 1990's when I was dating a teller. I was not even collecting silver at the time, but started when I found quite a few silver dimes, quarter, and half dollars. The oldest coin I ever found was a 1911 Barber dime. I assembled a decent wheat hoard as well. |

Probably the Carver Half Dollar from 1951 I found in a NF String box.
