Honestly, you could live a life time and not pull an IH cent from a roll,
but if you have recently pulled one then I would increase my efforts to
search rolls for a short while, since the same source that provided the one
may provide others.

I search half dollar rolls that I purchase weekly for my business cash
registers. I used to see 1 to3 40% silver halfs per roll and an occasional
treasure like a 90% Kennedy, Franklin half, WL half, and once a Barber half.
I would also occasionally encounter uncirculated rolls going back to the
1970s, a discovery I would also enjoy. For this last year, and maybe last
two years, I have not found a thing. I believe that someone at the bank is
searching the rolls as the bank receives them.

I have been searching quarter rolls that I open for the registers, but only
for the Washington DC quarters to check for the doubling of the "ELL" in the
name Ellington.

As I open cent rolls, I regularly see a wheat back cent, almost one per roll
average. I check the date and toss back into the register for other
collectors to find, the coin always a common date find.

Dimes rolls yield a 90% silver dime every few weeks, probably one dime every
10-15 rolls.

Not a roll pull; but, I did find a zinc penny and a 5 cent Euro in my
workplace parking lot.

I searched a roll of halves and found...NOTHING. Now that's my typical
experience.
