Whats your oldest coin roll find?

[santafeboy]

For me it was an 1895 1896 or 1898 (last digit pretty worn) Barber in a box of dimes. My best box of dimes was a $500 box which yielded 18 Mercuries and 2 silver Roosevelts

Quarters - 1935
Halves - 1900O
Dollars - 1971P/D

Mine was a 1893 Columbian Exposition Half Dollar. (Commemorative to the discovery of America by Columbus) Found this in a bag about a month ago. At the time I didn't even know these existed. Had to research for information. HH
