Roll-searchers, post your results!

Thanks @berto, @Arby and @TexAg. Now I'm hoping for a better one! I've been setting aside every 74d I come across while roll searching and have looked at 100's of that date. So it'll probably be another 8 or 10 boxes before the next one!

If you persist, you will find more. I probably have around 30-40 of the 1974-D DDO.

 

Yesterday 2 dime boxes gave up aubu 1962. Today nothing no time

Total of 36 since jan1

 

"The second strike is up and to the right of the initial strike."

Note: These are NOT separate strikes, the doubling was done to the die, they are one strike form a doubled die

And to newbies: it is die, NOT dye.

 

You are of course correct. I understand the mechanics. Just didn't translate it well when I wrote the post. Should have worded it as "first impression" instead of "first strike".

 

I have been searching for almost 5 years and have pulled 112 of those puppies. Keep looking more will come your way!

 

I box of cents today produced 7 wheats...earliest 1944. One box of dimes today produced 7 silvers...new record for silvers in one box.

 

Gorgeous coin FF!

 

I just finished up my last four boxes for this week, 2 skunks, I pulled 2-67 and a 68. I also pulled a 74DDO, its a bit beat up but I will take it. While I was dumping a woman was cashing in a bunch of coins, She cashed in $25 in halves, $10 in SB Dollars, $15 in Ike dollars, Which I pulled 2-76 Type 1 and Type 2. So of course I purchased them, I pulled 2-Bennies, 1-54D and 1-63D, also 1-69. Wishing you all the best of luck, with many blessings. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend and look forward to all your posts.

 

Searched $20 in CWR and $100 in MWR halves tonight:

1, 74D DDO

This was only my 3rd after searching about 160,000 halves.

 

I think this week should be dubbed 74D DDO week henceforth!

 

Agreed. I started something. It must be contagious!

 

Starting to pay more attention to cents lately. Believe this is a 1953-D “BiE” die chip. Supposedly, BiEs were common in the 1950’s, but this is my first so it’s going into a 2x2!

 

$45 CWR Cents: 21 Wheats with nothing older than 1941, 954 copper cents

$150 CWR Nickels: 13 dated between 1940-1959. No war nicks.

$450 CWR Dimes: Skunk

$460 CWR Halves: Skunk

That's a hard week hunting, but I'll make the rounds at the pick up banks tomorrow because I'm a hopeless addict. ;-)

 

There were 9 solid red rolls in the box I have now. In all of those there was nothing newer than 1992. A fair amount of copper but the vast majority of the copper was only fit to go back into the wild. There were 4 or 5 striped rolls and they gave up some nice copper. I think there is one more of those rolls and all the rest are countainer rolls. I'll do 10 tomorrow, 10 Sunday and the other 5 Monday. I'm going back through my copper starting at 5.1. 1 through 6 had copper I wouldn't normally keep. I'm going to go up to 20 for sure.

 

Today I found a few wheat pennies 1937, 41, 45, 52, 56 and 58 and a panama cent and Canadian cent in the rolls I usually find lots of Canadian cents but the Panama one is a first. I found a SBA 1980 wide rim and president Monroe, was looking for him for a while lol and a few 1982 d of which one I believe looks like the 2 in a small date I could be wrong

 

Congrats on the finds @Wheels, gotta love those wheat cents! Unlike the 1979-P SBA, which had a Wide Rim (Near Date) and a Narrow Rim (Far Date) variety), I believe the 1980 SBAs only had one rim variety. And yes, the date is near the rim.

 

Last Loomis box of halves was a skunk. I did find 4 NIFCs and a 1974-D Doubled Die Obverse which took some of the sting out.

 

Happy 1974D DDO Week! Congrats. If this keeps up, we may have to put out vibes for other weeks. Silver 64 Week anyone?

 

There’s a day for everything else in the bloomin’ world, why not?
