Nice Finds in Cent Rolls

Searched 6 rolls of cents today. Besides the few nice bright specimens
from the 70s & 80s, I found a 1977 dime(not bad for a cent), a 1979
Canadian cent, a 1996 Lincoln with a faint doubling of "1996",
and...drum roll please... a 1998 Type II in MS(my 5th '98 TyII to
date), still no 99's or 00's.

Good going, Steve. Sounds like some decent results from your careful
searching.

Congrats! That is QUITE a find. Interesting that you've found 5 '98s and no
'00s in Type 2. I've found 3 '00s and no '98s.

And I've found 0 of all kinds. And that includes going through three
$50 bags.

Oh well, I keep looking. At least I know some are still out there
(and being found by r.c.c.-ers, too!).

Why don't the two of you do a swap?
