Roll-searchers, post your results!

Picked up a box of dimes on the way home from work. 2nd roll gave me the nice silver edge and when I pulled it out it was a 1986 Canadian dime. Boooo.... Skunked for silver.

In 2010 I hit 4 walkers and 4 40% Kennedys in 8 rolls of halves. Haven't gotten much since other than a 1940 Washington in change from a store.

 

Last night, I pulled a 1952-D, a 1959-P, and a 1967 Canadian penny (the one with the bird on it) out of one roll.

 

$500 dollars- james polk no edge lettering, 1979-P wide rim

 

Searching rolls at work today 6 wheats all '40s, a '53 nickle, and a '62 dime. The find of the day a 1921s Morgan in the reject bin of the CoinStar machine. A good day for sure.

 

A Morgan dollar in a Coinstar machine? Wow. That's a find.

 

nickel box - 41-D&S, 45-P, 48-S, 2x51, 58, 59 & 1975 CAD.

My weekly pick up is tomorrow but I don't think that will happen due to this snow storm.

 

I mostly collect bullion rounds for a "Rainy Day" (Acid Rain, Fallout Rain?) Anyway, I like to pick up 5 or 10 dollars worth of penny rolls to peruse and search mostly for the error coins that I've learned of in my "newbie" ways.

So, guess what! About five minutes ago, (I lied, it's more like twenty minutes) I happened onto the next to last roll of pennies that I picked up today at my local
Fresh Mart.

Lo and behold, and all of a sudden, out of the middle of the roll (Drum Roll) I found my SECOND 1998 Wide AM Lincoln cent! Ta-Da! That would be two Wide AMs in about the last month! Cool, man!

There is hope in my beaten heart for the "Big Score"
Happy Hunting and may the Coin Gods shine silver rays upon your pathway!

Postscript: My eyes are bleeding!

 

I picked up $30 worth of nickels today, a mix of cwr and bwr. One of the cwr is full of cents. I will mention it to the teller next time I'm in that branch. Sometimes a cent gets in here and there or a roll is a coin or two short or heavy. This is a first though. Will update if the rest of the search produces anything.

 

got my first $500 box of halves today. the box was sealed, but inside all the rolls had been opened and folded back up . (does anyone else have this problem with Loomis boxes?) decided to search them anyway, no silver but i filled some holes in my set and found 3x 2012-D. i now know not to order from that bank again.

$250 twos - 3x 1953
$100 quarters- skunk
$125 dollars- skunk
$15 CWR/loose halves- 1x 1957, 2x 1966
$10 cents- all 2013D

 

Picked $1000 in halves today the first box was a skunk, but the second box had 2-1967's, 1-1968, and 7 NIFC. So not a bad day I reckon. Will another $1000 in two weeks.

 

Braved the weather and went into work. Extremely slow day but I still got some good finds:
9 wheats: '16, '44x4, '44D, 56, 56D, 57D
1959 cent.
BU 1960D cent.
'40 and '41 nickels.
Foreign: 2008 1 Franc

 

2 Boxes of Halves.
Box#1 - Skunk
Box #2 - 1-90% & 1-40%, a bicentennial S and a 1981 S.

 

how is there a 2008 1FR if france switched to the euro in 2002?

 

I think it is from New Caledonia:
