No point, here's the YT... My apologies about the crappy filming and quality, I was using my cell phone. Also I seem to be breathing heavy, but the phone was right in front of my mouth, haha.

And here's the pic;


$17.50 in 40%, 2 1964's.

One roll was solid uncirculated bicentennials.

 

Oh, and I also did a box of dimes while waiting for that vid to upload, 3 more silver dimes in there. About to rip into another box too...

 

$320 in halves at my bank, and NO silver. So unlike my last half search.

 

You have got a lot of time to do this Merc, don't you.

Seriously NICE FIND!!! :high5:

 

Yes, I have a lot of time, haha.

Second box of dimes just had 1 Roosie. Not a bad day so far, still a few hours to bother banks... Thinking about getting a couple more boxes. Got a box of nickels and a box of cents sitting in my car to do as well.

 

SWEET!!! Awesome finds Merc, did you just have a feeling and decided to take a video? Do you usually and then if you don't find anything just not upload it? Thanks for the video I enjoyed it, I have only found 1 roll like that ever so that was great.

I got 3 boxes of cents today 2 brinks and 1 NF String. I opened the NF String one first and there were 2 enders on the top side. I opened those first and there were 3 in each, then I opened a couple more and every one had at least one wheaty and decent dates in the 40s too. The first 17 rolls had at least 1 wheaty in them, the 18th didn't have any and then the next 7 all had at least 1. That was the first half of the box, I'll do the second half later and update. Darn, Merc, your video is making me wish I would have used my luck on a dime or half box now. lol.

 

Nice cent box.

I had a feeling about the rolls because every time I pick up rolls like that from that branch, I find a substantial amount of silver.

My finds from that bank;

Solid roll of 40%ers.
3 mixed rolls yielding $20 in 40%ers.
12 1964's in one roll.
2 solid rolls of 40%ers.
Then todays finds as well.

So that bank has treated me very well. Sad thing is, I think it's some old lady just cashing it in because she needs the cash. I tried to have the tellers give her my business card next time she came in, but they said they're not allowed to do that, so the only way I'll be able to help her out is if I happen to be there when she is depositing them.

Next time I'll make sure I have more room on my memory card, it cut off because I filled it, haha.

 

Great finds Merc!!!!!!

Yep, I'm jealous. I haven't had a good find in a while.

I did a box of halves today.....skunkaroony

 

Went to the Post office and 2 banks in search of halves. Nothing. So ended up walking away with 5 rolls of nickels (Spent the rest of my money on loose dollar coins and $2 Bills). Ended up finding:
3 1941's
1951
1959
3 2010 P's (First ones of the year oddly)
and 4 canadians.

I did find out that my teller is also a searcher, Mostly Halves, nickels and quarters too (No more buying loose coins from his tray). Glad he collects though. We got into a conversation and he told me how he's gotten a Standing liberty quarter in his change and that when he was over visiting his dad, he asked if he could go through his change jar and found a Silver clad half dollar and a Silver Quarter. The best part though was when I told him that I dump Dateless buffs and common wheats. He looked at me shocked.

 

Alright, finished my box of cents. 45 out of 50 rolls had at least 1 wheaty in them. 1st 25 rolls had 59 wheats, 2nd 25 rolls had 59, total of 118. There were a lot of 40s and 50s "D+S" mint marks, but only 3 wheats before 1940.

 

usual 2 boxes:

1st box: 6 40%
2nd box 6 40% and 1 90%!!!

Sweet day

 

Any particular years?

 

You know those are NIFCs, right?

 

How can you tell whether the box is Brinks or String & Sons? All my boxes of halves are in cardboard boxes that just say "$500 Halves" on the sides, no company name.

 

Type of box and type of rolls.

 

I got 4 rolls of quarters today trying to finish up my state quarters collection. I got 4 of the ones I needed. I also found 2 Grand Canyon and 1 Hot Springs quarters.

 

Still don't have all your state quarters? .

 

not yet lol. Im missing 1 state quarter and like 4 or 5 territories. Then again I started the state quarters a month or so ago.

 

Just found a northern marina islands quarter today in a roll. The last territory I needed .
