Box # 2 netted. 1981 s proof and a 1976 s silver

 

I'm just so surprised that this thread has 10054 replies, now 10055.

Anyway, saw a 1960 dime, a 1959 quarter, and a 1964 half

 

Had my best box of halves yet!

27 40%
3 90%
71 Proof
84 Proof
1 2010 D

Makes up for the ten boxes I picked up last week. All told out of the ten I got 2 40%ers

 

Congrats! That's a GREAT box!

And, AgentX, you had a great box as well. Congrats!

 

3rd box of halfs had 4 x 40%ers

 

Thanks.

 

Friends at work know that I'm a collector, so they brought me the strange dime that one of them got in change on Thursday when he bought a cup of coffee at the gas station next door. They looked it up in the coin books, but couldn't find it in the dimes. What was it? It had three pillars on the back. Funny looking dime.

Yep. 1875 Nickel three cent piece, in XF. No, he wouldn't sell it to me.

Some guys have all the luck.

 

Should have said I'll give you 10 cents for it before you told him anything else!

 

Funny, never crossed my mind.

 

Wow.....amazing!

 

How could the number of replies surprise you ? It's not like us roll searchers have real lives or anything.

Speak for yourself boss.

I'm taking a day off roll searching. Partied a bit too hard last night.

 

i found some money my grandmother gave me that was currency in russia before it began to fall apart

 

And that relates to roll searching because...

 

Box # 3 had 4x 40%ers and box #4 had a 1987p and 9x 40%ers not bad Overall

 

Went to bank and got a 68 half also at the counter teller i saw 2 old bills i asked if i could have it got a 1950 $10 and $5 bill! There in really bad shape though Still a cool find.

 

That is cool, oldest I've found was a '63 $10.

 

It's fun finding the old currency except I don't know a thing about it!

I had a teller offer me two $100 dollar bills from the 1930's once. I probably should have took them but, I had no idea the worth. She wasn't selling them for face either, that's why I didn't purchase them.

 

If this was a Bank Teller, I would be inclined to report this. Certainly if the offer to sell them happened in the bank. It seems unethical and may even be in violation of the law ?
