Perhaps get a nice inexpensive Whitman penny folder to keep your finds. See if you can find the various dates/mints that look similar.

The post 82 Lincolns tend to react pretty easily with the environment. According to others online, a lot of wild looking ones are found in car cup holders after reacting with Coca Cola, etc. 17-P is a cool year obviously because of the mint mark.
Collect what you like... and the album suggestion is a great way to display your coins. Cheers, RickO
Nothing there but spending money.
Happy roll searching!!
I look at all my pocket change as well, and cannot remember a significant discovery in a decade.
You are not learning anything and wasting time with the process you are employing.
There is an old saying... "Buy the book before the coin."
Buy the latest two editions of the Cherry Pickers Guide to Rare Die Varieties by Bill Fivaz.
Then you are free to search the unlimited amount of ebay listings across a broad spectrum of series and years.
Comes with pictures and notes about each coin. You can also use PCGS images for better resolution.
That way you are looking for specific pick up points and not wasting time with pocket change.
Today you pick a coin with an easy pick up point and say... "today is the day"
Then you search thousands of Buffalo Nickels looking for 3 legged Bison for example.
Then you remember the pick up point for next time and when you visit a show or a flea market.
Tommorrow? Walking Liberty Half Dollar engraved initials...
I have found multiple coins valued from $100 to $2000 using the guides and this approach.

Oh, you spoilsport. You're not encouraging at all.
