I work as a cashier and I love hunting in the register and people are oblivious to what they hand over to pay for their items. So far, in a years span of coin collecting, I have found 20 silver dimes, 1 mercury, 1 Indian head penny, 10 silver quarters, 1 standing liberty quarter, 5 silver war nickels, 3 buffalo nickels, and over 200 wheat cents.

those are pretty good averages. But there has been a lot of old coin coming out of the wood work to be spent or deposited with the economic changes that are happening,

Where all these in rolls or where they brought in by customers.

I know that a lot of auto repair places get older coin as people have to spend and dig to fix there car for parts. I have gotten some good scores from auto repair places that sell parts.
