Where to find rare coins and how to do so the easy way?

Finding a rare coin in your pocket is possible, it just takes some time.

Where to find old coins?


-At your local bank

-From change from the cashier

-If you live in the South or the East Coast, it could be possible to find old coins in barns or war fields

-At Gettysburg, during the war, many soldiers were carrying coins with them and could have lost them in the battle fields

-Always remember to look down to the ground because who knows, you might find a wheat penny or even a 1955 Doubled Obverse Wheat Cent; I have found old coins this way many times

-If you have Grandparents, ask them about any old coins that they might have, they will be more than happy and pass them onto their Grandson or Granddaughter

-If you need quarters for laundry, you can get a couple of $10 rolls from your local bank, open them and check for any pre 1965 quarters; I actually found a couple of 1964 quarters this way, rare but could happen

-If you decide to go to the beach, you can rent a metal detector and try to search for old coins, many people around the US find coins this way

-Before going to a local Safeway and dumping all your change into a coin star machine, check all change before, who knows, maybe you'll find a silver half dollar?

-Pick up all pennies you see on the ground, it is good luck and you could score big time!  Imagine if you find a genuine 1943 copper cent, you could get anywhere from $10,000 - $1,000,000 for it in an auction

-Last but not least, check your piggy bank at home, because before you read this post you did not realize that you might have some old US coinage; including silver half dollars, quarters, dimes, buffalo nickels, Indian cents, and wheat pennies.  Just have fun with this, post any findings on our comments.
