Got two bags of dimes today

Found 9 silver dimes one was a 1911-D :bigeyes: she doesn't look too bad either for being 98 years old!

Not yet, I took it to the coin shop but they were closed for inventory, ill try again on tuesday.

 

Are all 1976 halves 40% silver?

I saw someone say they are 40% silver so I checked on e-bay. Some sell for over $4 and then other 1976 ones no ones will bid $.99 on. Is it only certain mints that are silver?

Thanks!

Finding a barber dime! WOW! That is pretty good, I'd love to see pics of it, you just don't see them from roll searching too often.

 

p and d are not, but some s mint coins were.

 

wow, have you really gotten a box that was 85 to 95 percent copper? That's alot of copper when you consider that only 25% of the pennies in circulation are copper (based on an estimation I did where I picked out random rolls of pennies and separated the copper from the zincs and found that 25% of those randomly picked rolls of pennies were copper and 75% were zinc). I can't remember how many rolls of pennies I picked out for that experiment, but I know that for every roll of copper pennies there were about 3 rolls of zincs. I'm thinking I should do that experiment again the next time I get a box of pennies (or maybe I should get two boxes of pennies for the experiment, that way I can take use 10 rolls from each box so it'll be a truly random mix). But than again, I'm more interested in finding silver dimes (which I found one after searching through $250 worth of dimes within the past couple weeks, which is why I haven't been here in a while, it's because I've been so busy roll searching). I'll post pictures of my 1963 dime later.

 

2 rolls of dimes. nothing
4 rolls of cents. 1 52, 4 LP1 and 5 LP2

 

Yeah, but this is the exception to the rule. Most of my boxes are along the same numbers you gave, it was just this one box that I received. Like I said, I think it must have been a hoard of copper or just someone dumping some old change in to get this concentration.

 

Got 5 rolls of nickels Saturday and searched them this morning.
Found: 1944-D Warnick, G-4, 1946-S, F-10, 2 1960-D with BAR over 9/0 and Bar over B/Y/9. That's it.

 

Went through a box of pennies and found the following
8 Log cabin pennys most found in 1 box for me ever!!!!!!
1 1946 Canadian
1 1936P
1 1938P
1 1944
1 1942
1 1950
1 1957D
2 1956D

Deposited a box of halfs at the bank. Nothing found in the box.

The teller had 3 rolls of halves for me that some one turned in, they contained:

2 x 90%ers
5 x 40%ers
1970d (1st one i have found)
1951 Frankie
1958 Frankie

Those 3 rolls were better than most boxes I get.

I'm trying to find rolls of 1/10 ounce gold eagles
any help

 

Well that's not really how it works at banks I don't know about ebay or something like it though.

 

Searched another box of halves tonight. 8th in a row without any silver. I did find a 2006 D though. I'd be happy with ONE silver coin in my next box, lol...

 

BOX OF HALVES? 8th IN A ROW?
WHOA WHOA WHOA
That is like 4,000 dollars worth of half dollars, and not a single silver one! That is shocking!
Hey bob, maybe you found all the silver ones there is to find!

 

Searched another box of half dollars.....9 in a row without a silver coin.

Found a 2004 and a 2005.

2 rolls of cents, 1 LP1 and 2 LP2s
1 roll of nickels - nothing

Good night.

 

That is just shocking! Maybe come down to San Antone' and get some rolls?
