Found In Rolls Logo

I have added the “Found in Rolls” website to Ask About Coins!
Each section of “Found In Rolls” has been added as a post so that navigation from one section to another becomes fun and easy!

You can start on the “HOME” page by simply clicking on the title of the post to open up each page! The top of each page will provide links to the previous post or to the next post so that you can easily navigate from one page to another.

In fact, the top of this page has a link to the “Found In Rolls” – Tokens and Exonumia page. Click on that link to start your journey!

As an alternative, you can use the menu feature to browse by using the CATEGORIES list. Simply open the drop down list and click on “Found In Rolls” !

At the bottom left of each page, you will see a link to the “older entries” use that to view the rest of the “Found In Rolls” pages.

You will see pages for:

Tokens and Exonumia
World Coins
Coins of Mexico
Coins of Canada
United States Die Varieties
United States Error Coins
United States Dollars
United States Half Dollars
United States Quarter Dollars
United States Dimes
United States Five Cents
United States Cents

As I can, I will be adding images to the pages. The pages for the CENTS, NICKELS and DIMES have some special features that you can see when you check them out. I will be adding the same features to the other pages as I continue to add images of more coins to each page.

After you are done checking out my “Found In Rolls” Collection of “Fabulous Fun Finds”, Click on the links to the ARCHIVES to view my other numismatic writings!

Have Fun,

KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR NON-UNITED STATES COINAGE!

Over the years, I’ve found well over five thousand coins that are from countries other than the United States! Coins from countries like Fiji, Venezuela, Switzerland, The Kingdom of The Netherlands, and the former Socialist Republic of Czechoslovakia were all found while searching through rolls of what should have been all United States issued coins. You may also find coins like the ones seen below!
