What are the possible finds in a box of pennies?

[Legitlyfree]

My father and I coin roll hunt together, but recently we've been on skunk-streak. It's a little disheartening, though I'm sure it'll bounce back soon enough. I've decided to get a box of pennies and let him sort the halves for now. What kind of coins can be found in penny rolls? No matter how rare or unrealistic they are, please, enlighten me. Give me some hope! =]

I would say flying eagles and indian heads would be "good" scores, of course you'll find plenty of wheats.

Look for 55 double dies and the Holy Grail of pennies the 1909 -S- V.D.B.

HH & hope your half skunk streak ends soon!

Well I'm a dreamer so I like to look for that small gold coin that got away from someone and ended up in a roll of cents.

The sky is the limit. Coin rolls are a home for many things...

The holy grail of pennies would have to go to the 1969 s Double Die

a silver dime or a 1/10 oz gold eagle. Aim high!... also 1856 flying eagle and 1877 indian head penny are among the slight possibilities on what you could find.
