Now that we've gotten some experience coin roll hunting, it's time to complete our first collection.
Our birthday coin collection!
We have already found our Birthday penny from our first coin roll hunt.
Mine was a 1983D Lincoln Memorial penny.
Now, we just need a list of coins to include in our collection.
Here is the list for my 1983 Birthday Coin Collection:
1983 D - Nickel
1983 D - Dime
1983 D - Quarter
1983 D - Half Dollar
My Birthday Penny had a Denver mint mark on it. To keep my collection more cohesive, meaning to include as many similar details as I can throughout the theme of the collection, I decided to include only those coins that have the "D" mint mark on them.
You may like a different mint mark and that's great! The main thing to remember is that this is your Birthday Coin Collection. So, pick a mint mark that you like and go from there.
Now on with the hunt!
We have two rolls of nickels to search today. One roll is a white bank-wrapped roll. The other is a striped customer-wrapped roll. This should give us a good mix of coins to search through.
