Roll-searchers, post your results!

Went to my bank to get some cash for tonight. Asked for some loose halves. My teller didn't have any but the one next to her had $4.50 worth. I said I would take them. Four 40%ers baby! I was totally stoked. The other tellers were busy or would have asked them to check their trays. I had to get back to work or I would have waited.

This is definitely a teller tray week. Congrats!

 

After yesterday's dry spell of teller trays this was quite refreshing. You can get worn out pretty easily asking for loose halves at several banks.

 

Over the last several rolls.
45P that was beat up and ugly. 58D, 59D upgrade, 62D, 2x 63D, 2x 64P, 2x 66P, 67P, 69S beat up, 2x 71D, 72D, 74D, 2x 76D 1x 76P, 3x 77D upgrade, 78D&P, 79D upgrade, 3x 80D 1x 80P, 2x 81D 1x 81P, 6x 82D CLD, 1x 82D ZLD and 2x 83D (neither of which tipped the scale I made)

 

nope, PMD

 

Really? Well, I guess back to drawing board. Thank you very much!

 

Salivating to get off work and do 5 boxes of halves tonight. Also, remember when people would post videos of themselves coin roll hunting? That was so lame. Just had to put that out there.

 

Good luck and HH!

 

BMan. Hope u crush it 2 nite

 

Ok so not a coin roll hunt but kind of.
I was at radio shack today and I bought a mouse because it was the store closing sale.
I haven't CRHed dimes in a while... but I could hear something fishy. I received a 1964 dime in my change i was like sweet score! But then my friend goes up to pay and i hear more strange sounds.
Long story short i asked the guy if i could have some more dimes and he said "oh i saw some old ones in here". I received 12 silver dimes in total including 2 mercury dimes. I'm ecstatic to say the least and the dimes basically cover my purchase plus more. My friend also got 2 silvers but he didn't want to sell to me . I shouldn't be greedy though because I'm more than happy with 12. Makes up for my skunk box of halves!

 

Congrats ace! My silver this week came from teller halves, dimes, and a silver quarter. Two boxes today were big skunks minus another 1987 D in great condition. I think I have all the 1987 mints now.

 

Found this one as well in halves? AMD or a clad error? I've been doing a lot of research and looking at pictures of these this week to learn about them when I see them. Any thoughts?

 

4 boxes of halves: 8 40%ers including a 1976S 40%er. That is a first for me. Also got a 1972S.

 

In downtime been going through pennies and found this beautiful 1960. Think large date but need ruling on it. Couple shots for perspective

 

Good find with that 1976 S Half
They were part of a Special Silver set that year.

 

Picked up $10 worth of machine-wrapped nickels and $5 worth of hand-wrapped pennies.

The nickels: pretty standard. 1941, 1952, 1977 Canada, a few lower-grade late 50s D mints that I tossed back

The pennies: 1929, 1951, 1958, 1969-S, 1970-S, 2009 (x2), a bunch of Canadians (oldest 1951 - my first George in ages), 2004 Euro 2 cent

and...

One of the rolls had a stuck coin in it... figured it was a British penny or a Euro 5 cent, but this came tumbling out - a Buffalo nickel in a penny roll! Can't make out a date but I see a hint of a mint mark on the reverse. Going to pickle this one and see if I can fill a slot in the Buffalo book with this one...

 

In the Red Book there are two 76S silvers listed. This does not look like a proof at all. Any ideas what's going on?

 

I did several rolls of pennies today.
Also looking back at stuff I was going to keep.
Upgraded a few. Got about 8 82 and every single one was large date. Only two were zinc.
I'm beginning to believe that the small date is a hoax.
I'm four I didn't have two (one loose and one in the Whitman folder) I'd be sure of it.

 

Bman

I believe there was a Silver uncirculated half dollar issued that year. Not necessarily proof, but still 40 %.
There was also a proof set in Silver made that year.
It may be that the mint made a proof CLAD half 1976S that was not silver???? Hmmmm...
