Are you serious???????????!!!!!!!!!!! Wow, great finds. Also, remember to check those 1939's for the doubled die reverse.
Rick - I also live in WV - and I want to know what bank you are going to that you find all these great coins! I go to BB&T and I have turned my focus on Kennedy halves. So far in 2007 I found a whole tubes worth of 90% and two tubes worth of 40%. I got a penny box once thinking I would find a ton of wheats, but only found a few. Thanks.
Wow Great finds Rick - Good Luck on Monday! LOL - You have Speedy so excited he cannot keeps his dates and error str8. Darryl
yes it was real i keep opening the container and looking at them . i got them at huntington bank. they were in a brinks box. i never realy check for over dates just roll acording to decade and put up for my twin 10 yr old grand sons hoping when they get older they will enjoy them .
Thanks for sharing the bank's name. I have my car loan through them. At what branch do you visit? Don't want to waist my time looking through boxes that have already been picked through! LOL.
Its not always a good idea to tell what bank, branch, etc ya'll visit. Remember, this forum is online where anyone can view it. LOL Frank! I guess my fingers type faster than my brain sends the info. Speaking of Nickels....about time I got a box of them to search! Speedy
Good point Speedy - I just thought that I would save some time. All I have to do is find the bank Rick visits, wait til he gets his haul, then jump him outside the bank! LOL!
thats an awsome find! do banks normally have that many cases of nickels or do you have to order them?
it differs from branch to branch. i usualy only hit each branch about once a week . when the liberties showed up i had to go back just in case. three of the branches are out of boxes as they say we just have the nickels that you have already gone through. come back in a week or two. wvrick
