Hi everyone! Today I thought would be a great day to do my first coin roll hunt. I went out to the bank and it was closed! They were all closed. It was really annoying.

I was planning on getting only 6 Penny Rolls and 1 Nickel roll for my first hunt, I don't want to spend a lot of money right away. I would like to know what are the chances of me getting a wheat penny if I buy 6 Penny rolls?

I will try to get my coins tomorrow and hopefully I can pull some nice old coins! HH!

The chance of you getting a wheat penny in 6 rolls probably pretty good. The thought of you driving to a bank to get $5 worth of coins, bothers me. You could find an Indianhead cent or nickel every time and you would still be losing money. You don't have to drive to a bank however to buy coins. How close are retail businesses, to your home? Do any of your neighbors work at a bank? Think of somewhere you can walk to, that would sell you a couple rolls of nickels, etc.. And build that bankroll up as quickly as possible.
