Roll-searchers, post your results!

I've seen a couple like that, yeah... my last 10 boxes or so I didn't look for varieties, I just chased silver.

The Logitech Quick Cam Pro 9000 works on my Win7 Professional 64bit laptop. I wish they would come out with a webcam that has 4 x OPTICAL zoom.

 

Out of 837.5 in Halves (from five banks):

20 40%
4 90% (64)

 

Hit up a new bank today that told me (I called ahead) they had $150 in halves that someone had just brought in a few days ago. I figured it was worth a shot so I picked them up. Got out to the car and opened the box to discover every single roll had writing on it. Someone had written on there what they were (I opened about half of them to make sure). 5 were all Bicentennial's, the rest were '80 and newer. I do believe I may have discovered someone's dump bank.

 

ordered a box of halves last wednesday and it's thursday...still not in

 

2 boxes of halves:

Box 1: 2-90%, 21-40% (best box in awhile, been lots of skunks)
Box 2: 3-40%

Both boxes were dated Oct 2, 2008....kinda weird.

Also scored 2 boxes of 2009 D dimes. Gave one to my buddy for face and sold the other on ebay for $400.

Pretty good day.

Also, I'm curious, what has been everyones best (most) finds in a single box? My best box find is 43 silvers.

 

For boxes, so far out of 2 I have gotten 0 silver. However, out of $10 I got 4 silver, and in other occasions of $100 batches I have pulled 8 silver total, one being a Franklin.

debating trying to get some dimes tomorrow.

 

Just went through:

5 rolls of cents (pulled 2 wheaties)
1 roll of nickels (full roll of uncirculated 2009-D)
2 rolls of dimes (best find of the day: 1972-S proof
1 roll of quarters (about 1/4 states)

That's about it. Filled some holes in my folders. I was excited about the 1972-S proof dime.

 

so that roll of 2009 Ds is worth a decent premium, according to ebay, right?

 

I didn't check until now. It looks like they are. I have two of them now. Not still in the bank rolls though. I opened them to search, saw that they were all the same, then re-rolled.

 

2 boxes of halves. Box #1= 2 90% 3= 40%ers. Box 2= 0

 

Went through 4 boxes earlier this week; the best week I've had in some time for boxes. In addition to the silver there were about 20 NIFC that were in fantastic condition that I pulled and a proof bicentennial. Not sure what I'm going to do with all the NIFC coins but the ones from yesterday were really nice, mostly 2008s and at least 1 2009.

Box 1 - 1 Franklin and 2 40%
Box 2 – 1 Franklin and 4 40%
Box 3 – 12 40%
Box 4 – Skunk

 

Nice finds with the Franklins! I think I'm going to get a stack of singles, and some dimes when I cash my paycheck today

 

I'm sitting next to $1k in dimes I have to cash in, so nothing for me for a few days.

 

So I went to the bank today to take care of the paycheck, and the teller I've been talking to the most pulls out of his pocket a peace dollar and some franklin halves that a customer had brought in earlier. Ugh. I took 10 rolls of dimes probably from the same guy, and found 1 1963, a 2010, and a 2009. Still better than my box of halves yesterday.

 

Boo!

Getting a Silver dollar is hard. The tellers like those. I have also had tellers hold back Frankies on me when giving out the rest of the till.

 

Whenever I make a find I want more, and I have to resist the urge to go back to the bank

 

Stories about people handing in silver dollars really makes me want to be a teller.

 

Right there with you Ltrain

 

a lot of casinos in las vegas have half-dollars instead of half-dollar chips ---- anyone ever find anything in those?
