I haven't found all that much lately and haven't had too much time to look. Today I got two boxes of dimes (both skunk) and found one 1965 half dollar. In a box of pennies, though, I did find this:



Silver seems scarce (perhaps the holidays are over and fewer people are turning it in) but I can't really call it a bad day!

skunk box of dimes, and a 57D quarter from the teller tray.

 

I got 6 40% silvers in my last box of halves, I consider 2 a victory lol.

 

Got 2 Boxes and NOTTA first time of not getting any Silver in My boxes, BUT the lead teller asked Me if I wanted a Silver Quarter and of coarse I said YES.
So it was not a bust after all Silver is Silver and I'll take it.

 

Over the years I've got say 35-40 rolls of wheat's and mint BU rolls of all 4 of the 2009 Lincoln series

 

Box of Nickels: 24 pre1960, 3xCND (1985, 1990, 1998), 1948S (11.3 Million), 1943S War, and...

1939D!!!! Mintage: 3.5 Million

 

1 box of nickels - 43-P, 44-P, 52-S & 3x57.

Tabor - congrats on the 39-D...I'm jealous, because that is the last one I need to find from circulation.

 

Box of halves - skunk
Box of dimes - 1 roosie

 

Thanks Mr. Flute! It was a first for me as well.

Box of Halves: Skunk on Silver, 1987P, 1993S Proof.

 

I think my good luck may have returned (I seem to have much better luck with CWR)
I was really near the bank, so I thought, what the heck. I'll go get a dollar's worth of penny rolls (2 rolls.) I was feeling lucky.
It seems that I really was lucky. In total I found four wheat pennies, one of which filled in a spot in my Whitman folder.
My good luck is back!:hail:

 

Box of nickels - 41-D, 2x41-S, 43-S, 56, 57 & 77 Canadian

$140 CWR halves - nothing interesting

 

Box of Nickels: 24 pre1960, 1949S and a nice 1938 D.

Box of Nickels: 39 pre1960, 1942P War

 

Tabor - 2 early semi-key Jeffs within a couple days...Congrats.

 

Thanks...I have been on a hot streak with nickels recently. Don't jinx it! Just kidding!

Other than the 1950D, what are the other coins considered "Key Dates"? I would think that the 1939D is a key date.

 

R you interested in selling your war nickels?

 

Today was good! I got 5 penny rolls, yielding one wheat (1947) and two Canadians (one was an ender!) Two nickel rolls got me a 1941 and a 1954. Nothing in 3 dime rolls, nothing in my quarter roll. The lovely teller spent ages looking for rolls with old looking coins on the end, and then she handed me a popsicle (it was boiling today, as everyone knows.) What a lovely teller. What the heck happened there?!

To quote my favorite Deniro movie quote..."Are you talking to me?"

(A close 2nd is "I've got nipples, Greg, can you milk me?"
