Description
Roll searching remains one of the methods for locating spiked head cents such as SKH-1c-2019-04. A searcher working through unsearched rolls of 2019 Lincoln cents sourced from bank bags or original mint-wrapped rolls examines each coin under magnification, focusing on the top of Lincoln's head where spikes characteristically emerge. The 2019 Philadelphia cents, produced in large numbers, circulated widely and entered the banking system in bulk, meaning unsearched rolls remained available to variety hunters for years after production.
