Yesterday, I underwent my first penny roll search. I picked up 6 rolls from the bank. I didn't find anything incredibly interesting I don't think. In fact, I didn't find anything but dirty modern cents until the last roll. Then, I found 5 that were out of the ordinary.
1. 1946
LWC2. 1960
LMC (i think a semi-key date?)
3. 1982
LMC (that appears to have been struck slightly off center....not sure on the technical term there)
4. 1980
LMC (also appears to be slightly off center)
5. 1941-D
LWCOn top of that...I paid $3.00 for the rolls...and came out with $3.04, so I only had to add $.01 back to the rolls :) It was fun...I went back today to pick up my next set of rolls (20 of them!). As far as my collecting (or accumulating) goes...I'm a newb and I decided to start with the little stuff. So, I'm beginning with pennies :)
Here are the two that are off center slightly. the 1982 is worse than the 1980...what do you guys think? Are my eyes messing with me? I know I didn't find anything spectacular and I know sometimes I'll be completely let down, but hey...that's where the fun's at!
Oh, I searched with a naked eye so who knows what I may have missed elsewhere. Do you guys use anything while roll searching to help see better? I mean, I'm 22 years old....but even I have to strain a little on them :) Although I am far-sided. haha
