Roll-searchers, post your results!

Ok, just the statement that you found $500 worth of 1964 halves had me skeptical, but to claim that a dealer bought them from you for $12000 is too much. Nice story though, wish it were real.

Great find tonight

I found a 1892 Columbian Exposition Half dollar in a box tonight. I'm in a hotel and don't have any reference materials. I saw some crazy numbers on the PCGS price guide webpage. I posted here to see what grade\value opinions I can get.

Wow, GREAT box Moonshine!!!

Today I found $51 loose halves: 1 40%er
Did one box: 1 40%er

That puts me at 998....two more to go to hit 1000 40%ers found.

I also picked up 70 bucks in Ikes....After I check for the 71 peg leg, 72 Type II and silver, the'll go up on the bay and I'll make 10 - 14 bucks.....more budget to buy coins...

 

Haha, pretty much, dude. For what it's worth, there aren't many good sources out there... the few I've found are absolutely staying secret.

Yeah, I agree... cool story, but not really cool to lie to people.

That is a killer box, Moonshine.

I did another box of cents today... quickly becoming an addict.

Kinda sucky on the wheats, but the old wheats are always welcome in my book. Also got about 7 or 8 Canadian cents.

 

2 dimes (60, 62D) from a box, plus 10 wheats out of 10$.

Nice box Moonshine.

 

I really wanna go out and get some rolls today...but i think we got more than a foot of snow so who knows if I can even get out of my house let alone to the bank lol

 

The roads are fine. I am on I 95 right now. And yeah it was about a foot, maybe a bit more. Have fun digging out, haha.

 

hahaha oh yea it was so much fun...took me over 20 min and I was exhausted lol

but i did get out...went to the bank closest to my house, not a member there bu they gave me rolls anyway, and I gotta say for some reason I got a good feeling about these ones but I don't know why lol

I got 2 rolls dimes, 4 rolls nickels, 4 rolls pennies...I used the money left over from the rolls I got yesterday that I cashed in at a coinstar

I'll post results when I'm done

i am new to roll searching. my pennies come in a brinks box as my bank does not sell cwr's. so far in the last month with 7 boxes looked at:
average 10 wheaties per box...1 1911, 1 1949s, 1 1942s, the rest all pretty common.
average 14 canadian
nothing unusual
1 1998 wam
1 2000 wam

i love finding wheaties....any date, any condition.
wish i had access to more older pennies

 

2 boxes of halves. First was a skunk, 2 40% in the second.

 

Man, I always forget to look for the wam's ... would suck to think that they could have passed right through my hands lol

 

Got two rolls of halves today and found a single 40% coin. First silver I've found in awhile. I was starting to lose hope.

 

2 boxes of halves, first box zero, second box 17 40%ers.

 

I got two boxes of halves from my bank that i had order. First box dint find anything the second box I got surprised to find a whole roll with 90% silver coins in it. the top and bottom coins were 1964's whn i opened the whole roll to my surprise there were franklins and walkers in it. Was wondering how do they wrap this coins by a machine or theres people that actually do this. just ordered another 4 boxes hopefully i get lucky again.
2-1964
5-1957 franklins
2-1952 franklin
1-1954 franklin
1-1946s walker
1-1944D walker
1-1941 walker
1-1941D walker
1-1941S walker
1-1942D walker
1-1943 walker
1-1936
1-1935S

 

And the 2 64's just happened to be the end coins

 

Tomkins316, I'm a hopin' that ''82 can't make out the mint mark without a loupe'' is an 1982 NO MINTMART. that would be fantastic.
Okay, okay, I'm taking the plunge. Went to my Citizen's Bank and tried to order my first two boxes of halves. They said they do not order halves or dollar coins. I am miffed to say the least. So I went to my Credit Union, no problemo! They will call me Monday when they should come in. How about that as Mel Allen would say?

 

Nice score Anubis... most rolls are wrapped by machine, as far as I know.

Sold almost all of my 40% silver halves, $100 face for $750. Nice dude who bought them is looking to buy Morgans at $25 a pop!

Didn't search today... my halves never came.
