I recently went to my bank to pick up a few random rolls for my nephews 5th birthday so we could teach him about saving money and how fun/challenging it could be to fill albums. I waited in line behind a woman who was holding a box of rolled coin to deposit. I'm not sure if it's the "right" thing to do at a bank but I told her since I was here to get rolled coin that I would just buy hers and save us both a 20 min. wait in line. Needless to say she said yes, we made the exchange and we went our seperate ways. I got home and decided to re-roll one of the nickel rolls and was a little shocked... so I opened them all. This is what I ended up with out of 5 rolls of quarters, 4 rolls of dimes, 5 rolls of nickels, and 10 rolls of pennies.
Quarters:
1 roll of those gold plated Missouri quarters
11 silver quarters - 41d, 48s, 56d, 59d, 61, 61d, 2x 64 and 3x 64d
1929s liberty, what I think is one of those platinum plated
State Quarters and 10 Canadian quarters
Dimes:
20 silver dimes - 1936 mercury, 46, 46s, 47, 2x 51, 52, 53d, 58, 59d, 60d, 6x 64, 3x 64d as well as a 1938 canadian dime (prob. silver..?)
Nickels:
5 liberty head - 1887, 2x 05, 06, 11
11 buffalo's - 25s, 26, 28s, 34, 35, 35s, 2x 36, 37d and 2 with no dates.
8 WWII - 3x 43s, 43p, 44s, 45p and 2x 45s,
2 50d
2 canadian 39, 42 and a 1938d 3rd reich 10 pfennig...(kinda odd)
Pennies:
4 rolls of wheats, a few 20's, mostly 40's and 50's and a decent 09vdb
4 indian head - 03, 04, 05, 06
3 old canadian cents - 28, 32, 40
I'd like to think she was mad at her husband and dumping a small collection vs tough times. Had I known I would have gladly thrown her a bit more cash....sheesh
Sooooooooo do I give this to my nephew or just hand him the roll of gold quarters and misc. change and start him from there
