I went metal detecting, and stepped on a yellow jacket's nest, and end up getting a sting to the leg. I then go to the Supermarket, and a woman was putting coins in the self checkout station. I noticed a silver edge in the quarter section. I told her I collect coins, and I'm wondering if I can...
Hi guys, just thought I'd tell you the story of how I got my greatest crh find.About a year ago, I went to a local wawa gas station. Me being me, I asked the cashier if she had a single roll of pennies. She had a few and she let me have one. While going through the roll at home, nothing seemed...
I started coinroll hunting dimes around the first of January, 2014, after having good luck coinroll hunting for cents, only doing 15-20 boxes of cents finding a 1859 cent in VF, and a 1891 cent in VG, I also did only 5-10 rolls of nickels (yes, 5-10 rolls), and found half a roll of uncirculated...
Got this lil guy in a roll the other day. Think this was a man made error?? I'm thinking it is but I wanted to get a second opinion... Thanks in advance!

I think I posted the original in the wrong category, so I re-posted it in a new category.
I have only opened about a box and a half total (returning all the junk everyday pennys) and found lots of great finds including two IH cents A 1891 in VG condition and A 1859 in VF condition.
I already...
Today's dime box finds
Today I went to the bank and took out $250 in dimes,after searching them I noticed that 95% of the dimes in each roll were dated 2013. After I searched that box I went to another bank and exchanged that box for another one. In the first roll there was a silver (1950 p)...

Nickel and Penny roll hunting finds since February 2013
OK guys here are my finds for nickel and penny coin roll hunting since February 2013. I have only hunted about 15 nickel roll and only got one good one which half of the nickels were bu 1938 and about the rest were from the '40s '50s and...
Went through my second box of nickles last night and too my surprise, 5 or 6 rolls in I found a buffalo on the end of the roll :hello2:. The data is very warn. The best I can tell, it is a 1919-D. I have read about some people using "nick-a-date". However, some have said that it leaves an acid...
So, I'm fairly new to CRH. I started collecting coins around the age of 6 and it just kinda faded out when I hit high school. I went to a gun show 2 months ago and there was a coin dealer there who I bought a nice mercury dime from and some silver dollars. I then became bit by the collectors bug...
My name is Joe.
The username 'Joe' was taken, so i just added a zero instead. 8-)
I'm a new member on this forum, so excuse me if i am not posting correctly.
I've just started Coin Roll Hunting(CRH) and was looking around to see if there's a forum with other people who also do this, and post...
Hi guys. This is my first post on this forum so please excuse me if Iscrew it up. Anyways, I am pretty new to CRHing. My son got me started on it. Usually we try to get our silver by metal detecting, but the gound here in Michigan is frozen as hard as concrete! So we have been CRHing a...
I have only been hunting for about 7 months seriously, and would love to see a lot of the older members returning to this section to comment and give perspective to all us freshmen. I think we all know the CRH culture goes through waves, and all sorts of characters come and go, but for those of...
I got an email from Dr. Eifrig about "the 5 magic words to say to your bank." They want me to pay $39 to learn how to coin roll hunt. I think what annoys me is that now EVERYBODY and their dog is gonna know how to do this. The coins are dissapearing...and the last thing we need is some jerk...
This is a mixed bag, and I know you all have vastly different opinions on here regarding your "competition." I personally do not care about competition (In all the territory I have covered in the city and the burbs, I don't have a whole lot), so long as I am getting fresh boxes from the bank...
Had a pretty good week this week:
8 boxes of halves gave me 6 90%ers (4 walking!, 1 beat up Ben, and a 1964JFK) and 9 40%ers.
2 boxes of dimes gave me an 1899 Hong Kong dime (80%), a rosie, and found two rosies and a Canada 1940 silver dime(80%) in a reject tray/tube).
3.838oz this week or a...
If you are a CRHer from the ghetto, then you know exactly what I am talking about. These are places where people go and cash their paychecks and usually end up paying a fee to cash checks. Some of these places also do currency conversion and other stuff depending on if you are in a high-tourist...
Let's face it, it is a tedious hobby that is not for the weak of heart. Don't get me wrong, I love it, and I will COINtinue to CRH, but for me, personally, it is intensive. If you are serious about silver, you are dedicating time and energy to finding it (of course, making the occasional dream...
I've been around the CRH scene for a few months now, and have been a lurker of the scene since 2009. In that time, I have noticed there are a few different techniques that the pros use to get silver, and some pitfalls to them. I will list what I see, and feel free to post yours.
1. High volume...
Every Monday is Precious Metal Monday; so long as a bank is open and has rolls for me! After a Sunday with no banks to get rolls from, doesn't Monday always feel like a holiday (work aside, of course!)?
Anyway, on my lunch today, I went to a new bank branch (out of the hundreds in the city...
It's all about the customer wrapped rolls: My weekly finds
I had already found 2 90% quarters in reject trays of bank coin counters, and another from a teller tray. Found 3 dimes from machine rolled dimes this week as well. Pic is below, but first my tally from today...
So today, I took my...
Did my usual lunch walk today and picking up coin rolls along the way, asking tellers for the older coinage. Nobody had custi rolled anything, and nobody had any halves either; nut-thin!! Every so often, I have a day where I don't find a single silver coin, and today was my day. Don't let bad...
I hit the motherload recently if you haven't already seen my post from the other day. Well brethren, I started my morning with a $1000 search of half boxes (my girlfriend searched $400 of that with her cash, and I searched $600 with mine, and I searched 370 in dimes. Also, I went back to the...
Went to about 5 banks today. Picked up about $30 in pennies and asked around for halves. At the last bank, the teller explained "I have 2 halves, but they are both really ugly." She then tried to offer me the better looking Eisenhowers in her tray. I said I'd take the ugly ones. Sure was a...
It seems like a lot of coin roll hunters get great finds with customer wrapped rolls. But it also seems that finds are more consistent with boxes or machine wrapped rolls. What have been your experiences? My only results have been from CWR but it's hard finding a bank with these let alone...
My Finds In Pictures: Weaselbrott's Ongoing Coin Roll Hunting Diary
This summer 2012, I started the coin roll hunting seriously. I signed up for a dump bank account to use their coin counter for the hobby that was soon to ensue. Upon dumping coinage over the many visits, this is what I found in...
This is the result of my mission from this morning.
I woke up this morning and had a real itch for some silver. I decided to do a bank tour around my town. I mapped out the banks I wanted to go to, and asked them for customer wrapped coins if at all possible, otherwise I would snag up as many...
So I went to get my now bi-weekly order of halves at work yesterday. This is the second time I have CRH for halves, usually pennies. However, I am enjoying pulling silver a lot more than copper. This time I had twice as many boxes but got the same number of keepers. Last time was 2 boxes...
This is the reason I got into coin roll hunting, folks.
I ordered a box of half dollar coins from a local bank in my suburb. I called ahead last week to ensure I would have it for payday this week. So today I picked up my 2 boxes of halves (heavy as hell!) and eagerly take them home to...
:hello:Hi guys! New to treasurenet after being directed here by the awesome people on the reddit.com/r/CRH forum. Anyway, just wanted to say that I intend on being a frequent poster here, and have a bit of experience with coin roll hunting already, but just getting started here on this site. I...
Hey everyone I'm 16 and I have been collection for 2 years now, but I'm new to coin roll hunting, I just turned 16 and am working at In-N-Out burger (yes I'm in SOCAL) but I'm only a week in so I'm still waiting for a paycheck. I have gone into my local bank of America (my bank) and asked for...
