    Nicely done! I've been searching for like a month now. Coins keep trickling in at the minimum rate to keep me motivated. By my standards your 2 boxes have been a huge success!!! Oh, how I long for the day i get one of those boxes that yeild like 40 coins or so that others on here have bragged about!!

    Picked up two boxes of halves from Chase and got skunked on both. November has been especially slow.

    NW Jersey sucks, some guy named Ed searches the whole territory pretty good. Once I got out of his turf, I did manage to find a couple hundy in halves, out of which I pulled a '64 proof and 7 40%'ers. Two boxes of dimes from up there also yielded 2 silver dimes. Box of halves yesterday gave up another '64 and a lone 40%er. No searching today or tomorrow with me working from home, this SUCKS.

    Was in Asbury Park, NJ since Friday night. Had some good scores:

    49 x 40% Ken's
    3 x 1964 Ken's
    3 x Silver Roosies

    I searched $450 of someones re-wrapped dumps in a box. Also, came across $110 in CWH's and about $13 loose. Scored all of my half finds at 2 different Bank of America's!

    Merc - NE Jersey rocked! I only had time to search for about 2 hours...wish I had more time!

    I'd call Asbury Park Central East Jersey. Look up Chester, NJ. That's where the girlfriends family lives... for now.

    One of these days, I'm gonna fly somewhere, rent a car, and spend a few days hitting up every single bank I can find.

    Cazkaboom One for all, all for me.

    AWW MANNNN!!!! So Last night I was doing some dime searching, found 9 Mercs and 15 Roosies. Put them away, and woke up. Decided to go look where I put them and they were still there. But then I woke up again. Go look and they aren't there. Darned inception!! I thought I was going to be super happy, but came out with nothing. Oh well. Guess I'll have to pick up some more rolls.

    I have mentioned collecting quite a bit, when ordering halves i always tell them i collect because what else are you gonna tell them?

    Pennies i normally tell them i collect, when i bought the last box the teller asked who they were for, i assumed they were talking about which merchant they were for. I told her they were for myself and she got snotty so i didn't mention anything else. I think any other response would have been returned with, i can take my money out of this bank if it would make you happy.

    I wouldn't want to ask them to save change for me because i only roll search maybe once a month from the bank, work hours limit bank runs to only Saturdays. I do however also change dollar bills at the car wash for quarters to search when i have some cash on hand.

    Lincoln Cents Cents not pennies

    Box of cents- only 6 wheats :(. I was hoping for more. Surprisingly, the oldest coin was not a wheat, it was a 1939 Canadian cent.

    There was actually a silver lining to these two boxes which I thought would be skunks like my other two. With only four rolls left and me just blowing through them to get the skunk over with....I see a dirty rim and I'm thinking it's a 40%. Turns out to be a 1942-S Walking Liberty in XF condition. Strange I have pulled 1 more WL from boxes compared to Frankies. I had one other box like this where the only silver was a WL, I'm just shocked at how that one coin makes it into a heavily marked box like that. Not complaining!
