    This.

    2 boxes of halves, 1 40%er. I hate searching boxes around here, there's rarely anything worthy in 'em.

    First box today had 5 40%ers. Second box had 3 40%ers, a 64, and 13 solid rolls of BU 1993s and a bunch of 2010s.

    Two more boxes I'm saving for my husband. But he better get home soon or he loses out.

    1 Box today:
    2 40%ers
    1 90%er
    1 1981 (Diez Peso)

    The Peso was an ender, so I guess that makes it a "Pender" Click here to enlarge

    Also inside that same roll sat the lone '64 for the box. Wasn't a big find box-wise but was still cool to find the coins like that.

    2 boxes of dimes had 6 rosies and my first mercury dime Click here to enlarge. also got 2 boxes of nickels. the one box I saw a buffalo on the end of a roll through the box before I even opened it, that box had 6 dateless buffs. the second box of nickels had 3 war nickels, one is still silver in color and in pretty good condition O.O I didn't think it was even silver at first lol.

    EDIT: on a side note, I finally decided I can't save all my boxes Click here to enlarge they're taking up too much room.

    My bank boxes this week didn't do so well. Got 1 40% from 3 boxes.

    Picked up 2 boxes of quarters, found 1 silver and 1 Bahamas 25c.

    6 boxes of dimes yielded 3 silver and a '62 Canadian.

    Picked up a partial box of BWR today during lunch and found 2 40%'s. A '68d that is really shiny and looks re-silvered or something.

    Bought 5 CWR rolls from another bank on the way back. One roll had a Frankie ender and I thought I hit the jackpot, but ended up having only one more Franklin right under it.

    Dimes have been tough lately. Last week went through maybe 10 boxes of dimes with only one silver. I try to find at least one silver something per day, usually ends up being a dime, but last couple weeks that hasn't happened.

    Tons of BU 65s and 67s, and a few 68s. Then a few really nasty ones. Final tally for this box? 92 40%ers and 1 64! Best box ever!

    So then I dumped that and went to get another box. "Only" 9 40%ers and 1 64. Normally, 10 silver coins would be a WOOT! moment but the monster box makes it look like a skunk. I need to remember this when I get back to my 10 box skunk streaks. In the meantime, I'm going to enjoy the ride. I get a few more boxes on Thursday. Let's hope the silver hasn't run dry by then.

    way to go. I don't think I have ever had a box that good

    Box of Pennies: 15 Wheaties, 2 Indian Head (1900 and 1888, both were really beat up, one so much that it doesn't fit in my coin tube), 6c Canadian (including 2 1960s) and 5gr from Poland. Not a bad box I guess

    Box of Halves: 2x 40%.

    There were searchers marks all over my halves again. I really need to find a new bank to order halves from Click here to enlarge

    Hopefully I can find a 2nd box of Dimes and Nickels to go through this weekend!
