In the United States, standard coin rolls hold a specific number of coins for each denomination:
- Pennies (1¢): 50 coins – $0.50 face value
- Nickels (5¢): 40 coins – $2.00 face value
- Dimes (10¢): 50 coins – $5.00 face value
- Quarters (25¢): 40 coins – $10.00 face value
- Half Dollars (50¢): 20 coins – $10.00 face value
- Dollar Coins ($1): 20 coins, worth $20.00 for larger dollar coins (like the Eisenhower Dollar) or 25 coins, worth $25.00 for smaller dollar coins (like the Sacagawea or Presidential Dollar)
These denominations and counts are standardized for easy exchange and banking purposes. Coin roll wrappers are typically color-coded to denote the denomination: red for pennies, blue for nickels, green for dimes, orange for quarters, and yellow for dollar coins, [according to BOLD Precious Metals].
Do banks give out coin rolls for free?
