Box of dimes - 2 roosies.

 

do you guys have better luck with cwr vs bwr

 

For dimes it's about the same BWR vs. CWR
For Halves I would have to say CWR, but I rarely find them so I have to resort to boxes.

My last $18,000 in halves (36 boxes) I have found 32 silvers. Not happy about that 0.889 avg per box. What's more depressing is the numbers from local go to banks. $14,000 (28 boxes) for 18 silvers. 0.643 per box avg.

Awesome finds guys/gals!

I'm new to numismatics (bullion collector) and this thread has inspired me to dig through the 5 jars of change I have at home and I will be picking ups some rolls next time I go to the bank.

 

Yesterday's box of dimes - '56, '62

 

Solid results.

 

I found three 40%ers in a roll of halves this mornin'.

 

box of halves-skunk, Typical of late.

 

Blah, both of my banks forgot to order my halves this week

Luckily the tellers at both banks were pretty apologetic, and now they'll be ordering me 2 boxes each for next week, so it'll even out. To compensate I got 2 extra boxes of dimes this week, although I'm not expecting any more crazy dime finds.

 

Hi guys, I started a poll to see why the people on this forum roll search, for profit, or to collect. If you feel like voting, you can click on this link - http://www.cointalk.com/t207696/ Thanks.

 

2 boxes of halves. 1 Skunk. 2- 14/40% halves. I bought a Whites Spectra VX3 today. Going to try it out over the next few days on vacation.

box of halves - a dinged up '02 clad S proof

box of dimes - a '59D. Then I got home and took a good look at it under my glass...



another dime box was skunk

 

holy crap! Where did you get THAT and how much did it set you back?

 

last 3 searches:

box of dimes, one silver roosie
$100 dimes, one silver Canadian
$100 dimes, skunk
$15 pennies, average amount of wheats including 1925 & 1936 I needed.

 

Started With A Bang, Ended with a Blah ....

Monday couldn't have gone better - 1 merc and 2 proof Roosie's in one roll of dimes. In total, went thru 10 rolls of dimes Monday, and just ended up with those 3 coins, but still a very nice strike.

As for the rest of the week:

Tuesday - 14 rolls of dimes - skunk

Friday - $200 in halves - skunk
Friday - 10 rolls of dimes - skunk
Friday - 4 rolls of quarters - skunk
Friday 4 rolls of pennies - 1 wheat and 1 1960 D Doubled Die

I hauled Friday's coins a mile and a quarter on foot (17.5 lbs worth of coins according to my scale). At least I got in a decent workout!!

 

Halves
box 1: skunk
box 2: skunk
box 3: skunk

Dimes
box 1: skunk
box 2: skunk

oh, and $6 loose halves got me three 1964's, and one 1967.

 

Those are awesome machines. Good luck! How much did you get it for? I'm just curious as that's been on my short list along with and E-Trac. Trying to decide between the 2 of them to tell you the truth. Good luck and HH, I'm sure you will have a blast with your new Whites!

 

Finally Hit a BIG ONE!!!!

Grabbed 4 boxes today:

Box 1: 1 40%er
Box 2: skunk
Box 3: 43 40%ers!!!!
Box 4: 26 40%ers!!!!

Grand total of 70 40% havles! My biggest score since I started doing this in April of 2011. It was awesome opening these. Some rolls contained 4 silvers in them!

Stick with it if you haven't hit a big one yet, one of these days you'll hit one. HH all!

 

Nice score!
