Picked up my weekly 2 boxes of nickels and 8 boxes of cents. Was only 7 boxes of cents though because the delivery guy dropped one on the ground and it smashed all over the place. I was wondering why I found a few pennies outside the bank . Didn't matter though because the other 7 boxes are all solid 2013p. The nickels gave up 2 wars (45p&45d - a whitman hole filler), 3 canadian, 1 peso, and 20 cents singapore. I also got a really nice 39 that still has a mint luster and almost full steps on the reverse. Couldn't believe that when I saw it.

I'm down to just 4 nickels to complete my set from circulation.

Argh!
Boxes #32 - #35 of Halves: 1 Ben and my first ever gold plated 1967. I'm going to want a premium for all that extra gold on my silver coin. HAHA

Oh, and as I'm dropping off my coins a young guy is standing at another window telling the clerk that he came across this old looking $20 bill. He asked if she could check to see if it was real. I'm sure I saw red on the bill. She comes back a few moments later and so calmly tells him that yes it's real and would he like to exchange it for a newer bill.
I was so tempted to ask her for it WHILE he was standing there, even if just to educate him, but I was in a rush and it's doubtful she would be willing to part with HER $20 bill now. Man that was cold!
Where can I get a job as a teller if people are so naive to give valuable bills and silver coins away?

 

$300 CWR dimes:
2 Silver - 1961-D, 1964
1 Luxembourg 1 franc 1988 - apparently an unplated steel coin that was starting to rust already - when I was in Luxembourg pre-Euro the coins were chrome plated steel.

$100 CWR nickels:
2 '30s Jeffersons no mintmarks
14 pre-1960s
1 silver war nickel - 1945-S
2 Canada YH, 1962
1 Bahamas 5c 1973

 

Got $5 in pennies. Got 5 wheats- 1912, (2) 1955D, 1957, and a 1958 D. DIDN'T EXPECT THE 1912!

Picked up $200 in dollar coins and $100 in quarters.
Dollars gave me a 2009S James Polk Proof Cameo, 2003D NIFC Sac, and a 2012P Sac.
Quarters were skunk except for a 2009D Arizona. I thought I hit silver when I opened the roll. The rim is silver. Unfortunately it isn't. I weighed it out of curiosity and it weights 5.86g which is more than a clad but less than a silver. I'm guessing it is plated or something. Sad panda.

 

Was finally able to get a box of nickels yesterday. Two wars (44P and 45P) and a Buff (30). Still trying to find a place by me to get halves.

 

Lurking for a while now, but decided to sign up and start contributing.

From $10 customer rolled pennies, I pulled: 1935, 1941, 1949, 1952, 1958 (2) wheats none with mint marks, so I'm assuming all came from Philadelphia. Added another 210 other pre-83 copper cents to the small but growing stash.

 

Two boxes of halves finally found some silver the 1972 looked silver

Made more this month in the rise of silver price then I did searching and I certainly like gaining wealth without doing anything.

 

Today at work I had a customer pay with 17 halves. I got excited as he was placing them onto the counter but unfortunately there was no silver :/

Of the 2 years I have worked there, this was only the second time I have had a customer pay with halves.
