I'll post mine as soon as I finish the box of nickels I forgot to open last week. It's been an incredible month so far though!

Not so great for me....

1861 $1 Gold piece
Tons of foreign and tokens including CD 1967 Commem x1, George VI x3, and Young Eliz x1
And today I got a Series 1929 Chicago $10 bill

This month has been really great, lots of great finds. I found almost as much this month as I did the first 6 months of the year combined, lol. Total silver found was 38.5552 ozt. I hope August is just as awesome!

 

Where on earth did you find the $1.00 gold piece and the 1929 Chicago $10? (a) Coin machine and (b) in change??

 

The 1 dollar gold piece was attached to a jewelry loop/eye and I found it on the ground next to the coin machine.

The $10 bill I just got today, i saw someone paying with it at the bakery so I asked the clerk if I could swap it out.

 

Not a great month for me:
approximately 3 boxes of nickels- 5 wars
2 boxes of pennies- 23 wheats
54 ikes- nothing special
I was on vacation for a while, but I can't wait until tomorrow to start on August finds!

Best of luck to all!

 

~$30 pennies = 53 wheats, 1907 IH, 5 Canadian pennies
$200 quarters = 1968D, finished off my 1965-2011 collection of circ pieces.

 

$7,296.60 in dimes yielded 58 roosies and 5 80% canadians, about $115 per keeper coin.

$500 in nickels yielded 3 war nickels, about $167 per keeper coin.

 

On the whole, not a terrible month. Dimes were pretty awful, especially BWR. A lot of variety in the finds this month, though: Lots of Franklins and Walkers, the silver proof Ike, the Seated Liberty dime, the modern silver proof half, and the proof Washington commemorative.


Here's to a good August! Hopefully the dog days don't mean skunk days!

 

31 boxes of halves - 48 40% & 9 90%
2 boxes of nickels - 2 war
1 CWR dimes 36 Mercs & 7 Roosies

Total 13.57 ounces for July

 

Did you come across some great CWR halves to make those totals? Wow! How about all those Quarters, I did a couple skunk boxes this month. I really enjoy finding silver quarters I just wish they produced more.

Yea most of my halves were from CWR this month, including almost 5 solid rolls. I did have some good luck with boxes though, that's where all the franklins came from.

The quarters were mostly from a teller who let me have some, but some were from cwrs and the coin machine. BWRs of quarters are awful, I wouldn't even bother if I wasn't trying to finish some ATB/state sets lol

 

9 War Nickels & a handful of Buffs

43 Roosies
6 Mercs

8 quarters
12 40%
3 90%
1 Frankie
1 Walker

and the '29 Indian Quarter Eagle.

All in all, a good month, but a bad month for halves. I didn't get a single 90% half out of a box this month.

 

double post

 

I'd say!

 

nada for me

 

An okay month
Halves-$1158.50 searched 8 40%
Dimes-$1250 searched 5 roosies 2 mercs
Nickels-$112 searched 1 War 2 Buff (both with dates
1.7458 ounces
okay for how little i searched

 

I have been talking with Merc Crazy and he has been on a roll! He is already over halfway to his monthly goal, at 81 troy ounces of silver! I wish I could have at least one ounce troy!

 

I remember Merc's last post and video...I'm hoping the more I mention "solid stacks and rolls" the more likely it will happen for me!

Meanwhile,
