Hi everyone just cracked open a few penny rolls that I got from the bank the other day and I found a 1921 King George the 5th canadian penny. I'm not done searching but I've also produced some wheats and some older king george the 6th pennies between ranging between 1940 to 1952 and a 1999 penny from the Barbados. Good luck to you all and happy hunting!

These forgien coins can be entered in the oddity division. But if say you live in Canada the wheats could be also. Hope this helps clear things up!

I do live in Canada but im within a half hour from the border between Windsor,Canada and Detroit, Michigan that our pocket here is loaded with american coins. I've actually found indianhead cents in rolls before which really surprised me.

OK...got $30 worth of pennies and here's the keepers:

1920-D
1936
1939
1952-D
1953-D
1954-D

This is my first major search in penny rolls, so I'm not sure if the number of wheats found is normal or above normal. Almost every roll had a Canadian cent in it. It was fun searching .
Good luck hunters!

Hi everyone, I have been hunting rolls of coins since I was a child and I'm still at it at the age of 40 yrs old and I still get a kick when I find something.

So this weekend I went to 3 different banks and picked up rolls of coins. The first bank that I bought the coins from was the BEST search I have ever had in my entire lifetime. I purchased $30.00 in rolls of pennies and I found 143 wheat pennies,three of the rolls had approximately 40 wheats each. I guess someone rolled all of their pennies and turned them in, needless to say I'm going back to the bank on Tuesday and try to buy more of the penny rolls.

Here is what I found:

Date-Quantity

1911-1 1919-1 1926-1 1935-1 1936-1 1937-1 1940-26 1940S-1 1940D-1

1941-2 1942-1 1944-2 1944D-1 1945-1 1946-1 1947D-1 1950D-2 1951-2


1951-1 1952D-5 1953D-2 1955D-1 1956-19 1956D-21 1957-23 1957D-25

1958-1 1958D-1


I bought a sealed box of pennies(clear wrappers) $25.00 from another bank which only yeiled 5 wheats.


Happy Coin Roll Hunting!

Right now is the best time to get rolls..because everyone takes their change in just before Christmas to exchange for present buying cash.

The grandparents just gave the girls 100.00 rolled coins.......which will keep them busy.
They also brought an old coffee can full of assorted coins which wont count toward the rolled contest because the gparents had it a long time ........ So the girls decide to do the coffee can first..because of the silver......hahhahah....pretty soon I hear screaming going on and go to investigate....they found a silver filled tooth in the coffee can...LOL.....
