Hi everyone! I've been reading these forums for quite some time now and just decided to make an account. I've been crhing for about 2 years now and still consider myself new to this. I mostly do pennies. I keep all pre 1982, wheats, the S mint marks and search for errors and all that. I was wondering if you guys who search penny rolls could tell me what you guys search for?

Wheaties, copper, and key dates/ errors if I happen to notice them, but mostly the here're for the wheaties and copper.

Copper and wheats. Started halves about 2 months ago and have found 3-90% and 15-40%. I have one and a half 5 gallon buckets full of copper.

Thanks coppercrazy, I always look for wams but have no luck yet with any years. Can't wait for that first one to. And I've been thinking about selling my coppers to increase my bankroll. How much do you sell at a time and for what price?
