    Pull/borrow it from the savings, then put it back tomorrow when you dump. Just make sure you don't stop at McD's or for a soda or something and start dipping into your savings money. Search around on the floor of your car, your sure to find some change so you can get something off the dollar menu if you need to.

    Score! 2 solid rolls of silver! The total count was 38 - 40% and 2 - 90% Ken. Not bad for a $20 investment!

    Wow nice score sjlund!

    Not only did I get skunked on the week in my halves, and one of my banks forgot to order, but I accidently erased my Excel Spreadsheet for all my Half Dollar results, :( . I was closing in on 100 boxes too, and had plans of doing a big post with all my ratios, percents, etc. broken down.I somehow managed to save my seperate spreadsheet of my Nickel CRH finds where my half dollar finds were. So I've essentially erased all that data, and now have 2 spreadsheets with the same Nickel information. Oh well, you win some, you lose some. But I did make some nice finds tonight on my weekly Nickel box which I will be doing a seperate thread on. Merc you're gonna kill me lol.

    Hello, new to CT, been roll hunting penny's for about two months and on my first box I found 2 Indian heads 1905 and 1901 and I think I just found a 1995d dd3 on a box that looked old but only had 10 pre 1982 and a wheatty in the first roll it was a weird box

    Picked up three boxes of halves, two were skunks, one was showing this when I opened it;

    Of course those were the only two keepers out of all three boxes, ugh...

    Hit up a bunch of banks en route to a bank in DE that I placed an order with, found about $110 in CWR... got through 9 of the rolls, had 1 40%'er and 1 '64, both out of the same roll, and the last two rolls yielded....

    26 Franklins! Real nice range of dates, too, mostly D-mint coins. Was pretty pumped.

    Got a bag of dimes, that gave up 1 roosie out of $260, then three boxes gave up two more, very meh results. Still, any day with $13.80 in 90% silver isn't a bad day.

    Decided to try my hand at dimes. 10 rolls of dimes each from two local banks yielded...1 1964 and 1 1959. Nothing to get too excited about but good fun nonetheless.

    Looks like a lot of people had a really nice day. Let's hope it continues into next week. Picked up a box of dimes, skunk, 50 rolls of nothing but 2011d. Cashed it in and got two boxes of nickels. Each box gave up one war nickel. Also found two Canadian, and 1 krone coin. Can't wait for my six boxes of halves next week. wish me luck.
