    The machine had stopped because the bag was full. She told me sometimes it is short or over by a few dollars, was I ok with that. I will find out the exact count when I turn in the coins. I have never bought bags so I as not sure how accurate the count is normally.

    Aggie is KILLING ME. You guys know he lives 5 minutes from me and that we go to the same banks. He has gone to a bank that I had visited a couple of days before and got solid rolls of silver. Including today, he has pulled about 165 Franklins.....I've pulled 32 (I started a month before he did). Congrats Erin.....you're killing me.

    However, My luck (though not anything like Erin and some others) continued as I found silver for my 5th day in a row.

    Box 1 - Skunk
    $80 in CWR (including another $20 roll) Skunk
    Box 2 - 8 40%ers, 4 1964 :), and 1 1948 Franklin :D and for good measure, a batting cage token from Salem, Oregon and a 1990 2 Rupies coin from India

    Did a box of Quarters today. Found one of each.

    1953 Silver
    2006 Canadian
    1993 Clad Proof

    I'm thinking about doing 10 boxes just to see how I come out.
    Also just to give myself more things to look for I've been looking for any 1982, 1983, 1971, 1970, 1968 D, 1969 D, and all of 2010 Parks quarters.
    Any of those that I think are in decent shape I've been keeping mostly because low mints compared to other clad quarters, and the parks I just like the way they look.
    What else should I look for in Quarters if I do them?
    Nice job with the Halves guys, I"m very jealous. I wish I could get boxes.
    Oh well.
    I will try some loose halves tomorrow if I can find them.

    I did get $5 in loose halves but got skunked on those.

    i live in a little town i west virginia, and i usually buy coins from banks, and get the usual cents, nickels,dimes, halves and dollars. so i decided to go into the next town and hit a couple of banks, i bought 70$$ worth at one bank in cents nickels and dimes and halves, then i went to the other bank on the other side of town, and the teller had 25$$ in ike dollars, i said what the hay i will buy them and bought a box of more cents, when i got in the car i layed the dollars out and seen the eagle from the peace dollar, so i rushed home and started going through the dollars there was 2 peace dollars, a 1926 s and a 1928. then there was 13 morgan dollars!!!! one was a 1894 s, 1903, and an 1880 cc, i could not believe what i was seeing!!! when i got to the end of the dollars i noticed a seated liberty!! i about fainted it was an 1848. not in the best shape but it would do.then in the next couple of daysi went through the rest of my stuff i found 3 silver dimes from 10 rolls. 15 pre 1960"s nickels one was a 1939 d jefferson. and the pennies was great most of them was new, but i hit a roll of wheats, in there i found an 1911 s,1915 d, 1924 d, 1931 s. the 31 s is in vf shape. i went back to the bank on the other side of town and i asked her how she got all those old coins, she told me that a little old man was bringing in his loose change, every other monday. so i think im gonna hit that bank again. you just dont ever know whats out there lurking in all these rolls, and you dont know where they come from, but this by far was the best i have ever done

    I hit up 4 banks 2 hrs away from my neck of the woods and was able get $120.50 in CWR/ loose which yielded 3x 1964's and 6x 40%ers... Gonna try and hit up some local banks today...

    3 CWR of halves. Found 2 1964 Kennedys! They are in rough shape and the date is hard to read because of some nasty black toning. I'll take 'em though!

    I've looked through entire boxes of halves and not found a 40% let alone 2 90%. CWR are the way to go if you can find them...

    Woobacca - 1928 is one of the key dates, maybe THE key date in the Peace Dollar series. What kind of shape is it in?
