    Lincoln, I was also struggling to find 2015 (and 2014) halves. I looked through almost 100 boxes to try and complete the 5 booklets I'm working on.

    Best of luck on your search!

    They'll turn up. They may not be "intended" for circulation within the issue year, but I'm convinced the Mint lets them out later.

    Yes, I have rolls of 2002 to 2014, just no 2015 (yet). I know they will eventually appear, just have not found any so far.

    Since were on the topic, when did the U.S. Mint start allowing National Parks back in circulation?

    If you look at the boxes of halves they will sometimes have time stamps on them when the box was rolled, the boxes ive been getting lately have been rolled in late 2014, so I don't know if you will have much luck finding the current year half dollars. I have found 1 2014, but it seems like half dollars will lag some with the years the way they come out.

    When were they not? But mintages for some designs have been a lot lower than for the States.

    I've gone through 3 boxes of CWR cents and $75 CWR of dimes this week. Found only 16 wheatbacks and no silver dimes. Oldest wheatback was 1939.

    Tough week so far!

    Went through a $1000 bag of dimes today and got 6 silver Roosevelts in that, condition of a few were just horrid, but silver is still silver.

    Oh they were not in circulation for a couple years.

    that is not correct. They have been in circulation every year, every one in the series. The only ones that are not put into circulation are the S mint proofs. There are D and P business strikes in circulation for all in the series, all years.

    Finished off a box of CWR dimes today (had told you about the first $75 yesterday). Much to my surprise, I found 3 silver dimes!

    1942, 1957, 1964-D

    The 1942 is my first Mercury found from roll hunting. It was firmly stuck, obverse side, against a 1995-P, with what smelled like soy or fish sauce. Had to soak them to separate them, and scrub off the nasty gunk with my thumbnail. The '42 has a "clean" blemish now, but I'm happy to have found it! :)

    Mmmmm.... I'm not too sure about that. I know for a couple years, they were removed.

    Two boxes halves: 8-NIFC. Boring.

    I think you are thinking about the Presidential Dollars. The ATB quarters have all been released into circulation.

    $25 BWR Cents: 489 coppers and 7 wheats. Only coin of note was an Icelandic 2 Aurar dated 1942.

    $80 CWR Nickels: 15 pre-1960 keepers including a 1945-P. Also found a 1992-S proof that found its way into circulation.

    View attachment 439128 View attachment 439128 Visited a bank about 20min away from my home asked for halves. The teller said we have $50. I only had $40 in my pocket came back in my car looked the ends of each roll all showed Franklins grabbed another $10 from my car and picked up the final roll. Almost all were 90%. Also there was a total of $49 face. Also 3 40% Kennedys

    According to Red Book, all of the ATB National Park quarters have been released. I also remember seeing them show up in circulation, each in turn. I pulled 2 each from new rolls for my albums. They were all circulated
