Awesome Score FF02, I like it when my bank tells me someone ordered and didn't pick up, Have scored some nice silver from those abandon boxes.

 

No silver out of 4 rolls of quarters,only opened a few of the cent rolls. I bought a box an a half and half was crw,most of those were 80s back.more then half so I'm happy bout that,no wheats yet.

 

5 halves... nothing. Picked up 1 ike.

 

I guess if/When I sell my box of pennies I'll ask about halves and dollars. Shoot, I'll have a whopping 7 bucks to spend!

 

The two on the left are mid 6 level.
The third one over is bravisimo!
The forth one doesn't give much away.
Actually I like to see them a bit wetter but three and four aren't bad at all.

 

You are doing an awful lot of extra work grading Lincoln memorial cents because you can buy the entire set as cheap as 10 cents a piece average for the whole set in UNC from a reputable dealer with fair prices (I haven't checked the prices on the years no UNC sets were sold by the USA mint - they might cost more).
Nobody buys anything less than AU+ [BU coins with fingerprints] from dealers in that type.

Your cents are circulated and look AU or less to me. Why bother? It fun to try and fill up sets from roll searching. Unless you find error cents, in the end you are just going to return them into the wild.

It would benefit your collecting experience if you learned how to grade them using the same standards that the dealers use.

 

Traveled to California. Every bank I visited for halves, dimes, nickels, & cents only had opened, searched, and re-closed rolls. $600+ halves = skunk. I did find 1 Wheatie (1956-D) that somebody missed. Other than a few NIFCs, nada!

 

I've been reading about grading and what to look for and it just seems like they meet the text. Where I'm so new and no virtually nothing about grading,im going to my local shop and getting some pointers first.Thank you for the help.

 

At least in Texas I can get MWRs pretty much when I want them.

 

I’m guess it’s a scaling system (1-10)

 

Eek!

 

Question for the other cent hunters out there. When you order boxes, on the average how many dimes do you get per box Mixtown with the pennies? There’s been a handful of times I get a dollars worth of them in one box.

 

I can state I have never not gotten dimes when going through rolls of Cents. The most I have gotten out of a box is $1.50 and a few times I got at least one silver dime.

 

At least 1 sometimes 2 in every box. 5 is the most I remember in a box of cents.

 

100%....you must be friendly and compensate tellers for their time and effort, even if it's with politeness and a smile. and NEVER dump coins on your friendly tellers. Although, I'm curious...what kind of red seal bills did the teller put aside for you?

 

From a roll.... Very pretty 1962 Jefferson Nickel some steps left.

 

Looks like a 63, nice roll find!

 

Wow!....yes I did that...2 completely wrong pictures. I will put up the correct ones shortly...thank you.

 

I Got a few dimes in the last box. I'm only 5 rolls into this one so far and no dime yet. And never ever a nice one or silver one.
The cents I keep have no damage I can see with the naked eye.
And I try for no blemishes.
