Roll Results for Sept. 19, 2006
Saturday, September 16, 2006
On Friday September 15, 2006 I visited my local bank to get some coins, here is what I picked up from them:
$25 in pennies (2,500 pennies/50 rolls.)
$26 in nickels (520 nickels/13 rolls.)
That is $51 total in both pennies and nickels that were in 63 rolls that totalled 3,020 coins searched hand-by-hand. Hunting down the coins took much longer, however. After about five hours and half a liter of caffeinated pop, I finally got down to the last roll.
And most importantly, the roll results!

FAQs
Here's a list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) regarding coin roll searching:
Q: How do I get rolls of coins?
A: You can find them at practically any bank. Sometimes you can also 'buy' rolls from stores (usually not in bulk since they need them for their cash registers), eBay has a good selection also (always make sure you're buying from someone reputable though,) and be sure to always check out your local coin shop.
A majority of banks now days no longer carry halves because halves (or "50 cent pieces" are no longer used with most cash purchases.) If this is the case with your bank and you want to get rolls of halves, your bank may be able to order you a box ($500 worth) for you. Sometimes banks will charge you for ordering, but if you're a customer with them (ex. you have a checking or savings account there) they should supply you with them for free.
Q: How many coins are in a roll and what is the value?
A: Here's a pretty easy-to-follow guide I made that should help you answer this question:
Pennies: there are 50 pennies in one roll, the face value of one roll is 50 cents.
Nickels: there are 40 nickels in one roll, the face value of one roll is $2.00.
Dimes: there are 50 dimes in one roll, the face value of one roll is $5.00.
Quarters: there are 40 quarters in one roll, the face value of one roll is $10.00.
Halves: there are 20 halves in one roll, the face value of one roll is $10.00.
Dollars: there are 20 dollars* in one roll, the face value of one roll is $20.00*.
* The Sacagawea dollars come 25 dollars per roll with a $25.00 face value.
