Today’s hunt consisted of four rolls, for a total of 200 pennies, and while I’ve been enjoying watching playoff football and UFC again, I didn’t find much! I did find another die crack though, which is always exciting. The penny itself is in fairly rough shape, but I’ll still keep…

After the entire US East Coast was hit with winter storms, then rain storms, I think it’s time for a nice reset with some more pennies. I did another three rolls of pennies tonight, and found some pretty exciting coins! The first roll gave me a 1960 penny in great…

Welcome to Part 2! Nickels are cool and all (see: Part 1), but there’s just something very fun about looking through those little one cent pennies. Tons of errors to look for, and over one hundred years of Abraham Lincoln’s face. The small size and accessibility of pennies make them…

Since the entire east coast is covered in rain, ice, and snow, I figured today is a solid enough day to look through some coins, and catch up on the Big Brother Reindeer Games. My wife picked me up a roll of nickels recently, so I wanted to start there…
