    Wow what a score! Are most of the boxes you search skunks?

    I know I mentioned this earlier but is there anyway possible to find a shield nickel in a coin roll? Maybe a 2 cent or 3 cent piece?

    I think so, especially given the fact that I've found pennies and foreign coins of smaller size than nickels in rolls of them.

    That is not bad. I have been searching for 2 years and have done vigorous searching of two boxes a week for 9 months and still don't have that many! Good job and keep up the work!:)

    They also sold me the box for 490. Apparently a tell saw a roll they liked abd bought it. It probably had the Franklin half that teller was taunting me earlier with.

    Last week I ordered 7 boxes of nickels and I also got a box of dimes and pennies today. All seven boxes of nickels are 2015 and the box of dimes is 2016. What a waste of my time. I might order seven boxes of nickels again in two weeks.

    DEFINITELY time to get a new pick up bank. This one just became your deposit bank.

    They are great people at that bank and are currently the only bank that will order halves for me. So I got no choice but to except it if I want half dollars or until I find another bank that will order for me. It just gets old knowing that they search for enders in all my boxes and actually find some!. Almost every box I find silver in a teller bought a roll or two out of the box! It makes me wonder what I could have had if they stayed out of those boxes.

    So that box of halves that i pictured earlier, had to be someones dump. Nothing interesting at all inside except for 11 NIFC halves.
    That kind of hurt my collecting moral... until today when i stopped at a wells fargo (I dont even have an account there). They had 137 dollars in Ikes. I was only carrying 100 on me so I bought what i could. Now, i didn't get to look through them for varieties and what not, but there was a 1972 S 40% silver dollar in there. I was estatic just finding ikes, even happier finding silver!
