I showed it to the guy at the coin shop and he said it was a regular O.

Bank #1 - $1.50 loose halves - skunk

Bank #2 - $10 loose halves:
6 90% (1943 Walker, 1961-D Franklin, 1963 Franklin, 1964 Kennedy x 2, 1964-D Kennedy
11 40% (1966 x 5, 1967 x 4, 1968-D x 2)

 

Found a proof 1982 s quarter, 1963 D dime, a 1940 D nickel, and a 1941 wheat back in ONE week. Just in pocket change. It was a great week

 

$25 BWR Cents:
- 12 Wheats - 29-S, 37, 39, 40-D, 45 (x4), 52-D, 53-D, 56 (x2)
- 3 Canadian - 74, 75, 85
- 566 copper cents (23%)

That was my last box of cents from my regular pick up location. BOA is closing that branch at the end of the month so they're winding down all the extraneous services. They've been great to deal with and I hate to see them go.

I stopped by the next closest branch today to see what kind of response they'd have to my buying cents by the box. The teller was helpful and asked if I minded an open box - which turned out to be filled of customer rolls. My heart sank a little as I haven't had great luck with CWR cents. I pulled out a couple of sample rolls after I got home and it doesn't look like they've been mined for copper so no harm no foul as far as I'm concerned. Looking forward to seeing what's in there over the next few nights.

 

Bag of nickels:
1 War(45S)
1 Can 5c
2009P
1941S Clipped Planchet
9 pre-60 keepers

I also may be losing my half dollar connection. My CU told me that it is getting to expensive to order them. They will try to work something out and will let me know on Thursday. Fingers crossed.

 

He didn't grade it. Here's some pictures. It would grade very low but it's silver and, hey, it was free.

 

Went back to "Bank #2" today and asked for $40 in halves, thinking I'd exhaust their supply - got an envelope with 40%'ers spilling out. Almost the entire thing was 40% Kennedys, with a few 64's and clads in there too.

 

I've been CRH for years, mostly cents and mostly by date & MM. I've stepped it up in the last couple of years finally buying 10X loupe probably going through about $1K FV cents, finding no errors or varieties. Aside from 8-10 wheats per box, 500 pre-82 CU, and a few very nice early AU-MS; nothing much to speak of. I've never found any silver in Half dollar Rolls, and so I usually only buy a couple rolls every now and then. Today I bought 8 HD rolls from the bank - Dunbar rolls. I searched them for variety for the first time and guess what I found; Two 1971-D DDO FS-102 halves. Yippee. At least one of them, I think, is AU.

 

$23.50 loose halves - skunk, all 1970's and 80's
$100 quarters - 3x bicentennial

 

Two boxes halves- one 90% 1964, two proofs-1974-S and 1978-S, and about 12 NIFCs.

 

I've only tried one bank, and they flat out won't give me any. Can they do that? Or is there some type of fine print saying they cant?d

 

Same problem here the banks in my area all said no unless i was a business

 

They can. They are businesses and don't have to give you something that costs them money if you aren't a customer.

 

This weeks dime box yielded two silvers...1953 D and a 1963...that makes 5 for the year...averaging 1 per thousand searched...

 

I think someone told me if you have a business account, they can just "write it off" (obligatory Seinfeld reference), or those accounts have a different bucket of money to utilize, etc.

 

Sweet. I found a mostly-sorted box of Lincolns in my stuff. There were hundreds of each date/mm of error/variety packed separately. Pulled out (2) 1995 D DDOs and (1) 1995 DDO. Still looking for any 60's-80's Doubled dies or any of the scarcer AM vaieties...not in this batch

 

$1800 in halves. The CU gave $200 from my order to a lady who had requested $200 last week. I wasn't happy about it but I still ended up ok in the end:
Box 1(the short box) - 1x40%, 78S Proof, 2 NIFC
Box 2 - 3x1964P, 7x40%ers, 87D, 91S Proof,4 NIFC
Box 3 - 85S Proof, 3 NIFC
Box 4 - 44P Walker Reverse Ender!, 22x40%ers, 3 NIFC

Total: 1 Walker, 3 Kens, 30x 40%, 3 Proofs, 1x87D, 12 NIFC
5.88oz. So far this year I am at 1oz per day

 

$1,000 bag of halves- 8x 40%, 3x 90%, 2003-D, a 1979 SBA, and a 1996 toonie

 

What is NIFC?
