Coin Roll Hunting - Merits As A Means of Making Money

Merits As A Means of Making Money

The merits of coin roll hunting as a means of making money are hotly debated. It is not uncommon for coin roll hunters to search through multiple boxes of coins only to find nothing of value. The amount of silver left in circulation is constantly dwindling. Many seasoned veterans of coin roll hunting have commented that in the long run they would have been better off just buying the silver coins they have found as it would have been cheaper and easier once the cost of their time has been factored in. The expected return from coin roll hunting also varies based on what denomination is searched. US quarters and dimes tend to produce the worst as most of the silver from these denominations has already been pulled from circulation. Pennies provide the best returns when collecting pre-82 copper pennies with the typical penny roll producing around 25% copper to 75% zinc pennies. However, the amount of profit from searching pennies is much lower due to the lower face value of the coin.
