    4 rolls of CWR nickels gave up 2 very minor updates one of which was a 2009D. 5 rolls of CWR pennies coming up next.
    But I'm in no hurry.

    $25 BWR Cents, $64 CWR nickels, and $140 CWR dimes... and not a thing worth mentioning. Eternally hopeful for better luck in this week's hunt!

    First two of the penny rolls gave nothing.
    Going to save the other three for the morning.

    ~30 Dollars in loose halves from various banks... Nothing. I kept saying 1 more 1 more, I would've stopped when I got my first silver...
    But now I have a box of dimes to work on!

    Went and traded at the primary bank. Got four nickels and five pennies all MWR (Almost certainly Loomis).
    First two nickel rolls gave nothing.
    Hope springs eternal.

    $10 in Ikes and $220 in CWR halves from a variety of banks yielded nothing remarkable in the Ikes and only a '77D no FG in the halves :grumpy:

    $40 CWR nickels 34 (3rd Buffalo this month, first non type 1), 2x40, 2x41(one is AU53-55), 53, 53D(AU/BU), 58D, 2x59D, 60, 3x60D, 61, 2x61D and 3x62D. I'm surprised at the number of buffalos I've been finding lately. This one the best shape from the wild thus far. No warnicks in a while, but the hunt continues.

    Edited to add- Oh snap! The 5th roll of pre63s is now overflowing! Looks like I'll be getting the loupe out tonight and looking for varieties!

    Unded up with two or three updates out of the Nickelse.
    Three rolls of pennies no big things. Thought for a moment I had a copper 83D. But got my scale on a flat area and it was just zinc. C'est la vie.

    $230 in CWR halves yielded 1 AU '87P and $1.84 in fees from my bank :hungover:

    Fees you say? For the dumping or for requesting/ordering the halves?

    In pennies I did find a 2010P that was better ie: didn't have a noticeable hit on the reverse. Got a better 1958P as well.
    Pretty soon I'll look at the other two rolls

    Fees for both buying and depositing rolls: first $200 free, then $0.08 per roll.

    I've been only buying rolls of halves there lately. I'm willing to pay this fee to buy up to 100 rolls to determine whether or not my silver finds will be consistent enough to offset the cost. Another 50 rolls should arrive for me tonight, so my test will soon be complete.

    Maybe I'll get out later to the bank. But the way I feel after weedeating the yard it may not happen.
    The last two rolls this morning didn't yield anything better than what I had.

    Thats not terrible. I mean free would be better but if you hit at least 1 silver half per $1000 it would still be worth it to me. Good luck and HH! Let us know the results.

    I would be loosing enough money to make CRH a loss if I had to pay any fees at all. I suggest looking at getting accounts at other banks if possible.

    It's like that huh? What have you been averaging per box (girlfriends finds included)? I guess if you factor fuel into the equation it could get up there. I stop on my way home from work at branches on the route so I don't factor that in.

    @moneycostingmemoney I have hunted down 50 ounces of silver this year. I average 2 per box but sometimes get well over that in a box. I need to come up with a better route so I can diminish my gas costs. I moved and am still using my old route. Another problem I had was my primary bank getting rid of all their coin machines. Now I can only use secondary bank coin machines which is a lot less.

    Awful week! My second branch forgot to order four boxes, so only was able to get eight boxes. Only found one 1941 Walker, bummed! But broke the 300,000 coin mark. Officially at 302,000.

    @Bman33 do you dump dump or do you put them back in the rolls they came in? That's what I've been doing with all denominations but see a lot of people bring them back loose. It's been a while since I ordered a box since I've been working on the Jefferson books and recently looking for varieties. It would be nice to get some silver in the tube at face value again.
