Jayman931 Pillar of the Community United States 2651 Posts	Posted 07/15/2011 6:44 pm Im new to roll hunting. I think I have been through to boxes of pennies ($50 bucks worth) my oldest is a 1947 Wheatie. I have found some really nice ones from the 50's-70's...Several of them look like the are fresh off the mint. I really am not searching for old coins...I am looking for errors and anything shiney and pretty that is older. Good way to pass some time...good luck. Report this Post to the Staff
