Nope...Denver only minted the copper-nickel alloy. Philadelphia minted in both alloys - copper-nickel and silver-manganese-etc, and San Fransisco minted only the silver-manganese-etc alloy.

I'll have to recheck my red book. I could be getting mixed up with the philly mint.

 

Got any pictures of your 1942 D War Nickels?

I know--didn't mean to pile on. Sorry.

 

did u take pics of the ender?

 

Got hammered by 30" of snow. There was no way I could get out on Saturday so I took $2800 to dump on Sunday. Everyone was all plowed out but the roads are still crap and some places are down to one lane. Every bank was closed...ha ha ha. I got smart this morning and started to call around and found BoA that was open. I don't normally dump there but I knew a teller and she hooked it up and took in $1000 in loose rolled halves and tossed them in a bag for me and gave me immediate credit.

I'm going to have to get creative the rest of the week because I have about $800 in dimes and no where to dump them. Good luck to everyone still digging out.

$55 BWR dimes
skunk. Three rolls of 2012-P.

Know the feeling (although it wasn't as bad here). All the banks closed early on Friday & were closed Sat., so I feel lucky that I got my dumps done. I have a box of halves & dimes for tonight.

 

Mike here...can I have my boxes back, including the silver of course? haha

Great finds, great day!

 

$12.50 from a tray... 1 proof, 1 40%. I'll take it.

I started doing this January 19[SUP]th,[/SUP] when I walked into a random bank, bought $20. of nickels and I found:
(1) 1944P silver
(1) 1907 Liberty “V”
(1) Indian (year faded)
(5) pre-’60 (including two ‘39s)

Same day went to a different bank, bought another $20. of nickels and found:
another 1944P silver nickel, and:
(1) 2009
(6) pre-‘60

Since that day, and $490 dollars later, I’ve found:
(4) more silver nickels (the most recent one today), another Liberty “V” (1912), 3 more Indian nickels, 3 more 2009 nickels and scores of pre-’60 nickels.

I’ve also went thru 6 boxes of pennies and have been averaging between 24% and 30% being pre-’82, and have been getting between 11 and 25 ‘wheaties’ a box, the oldest ones being 1909, 1917 and 1919.

This past Friday night, in preparation for the blizzard, I bought 2 boxes of pennies, and among my finds, was a 1905 Indian cent.

All I can say is that I wish I had thought of doing this years ago. I'm really enjoying the hunt, and looking forward to getting my first box of halves.

 

$250 BWR dimes: Nothing

 

Over the weekend I did 2 boxes of nickels and 2 of pennies. Wow, it's been so long since I last got pennies that I for got how long they take to go through. It was worth it, though.
