    It's so new it has mint luster, but the luster is a little tarnished (probably from moist air and sun).

    don't usually do dimes but wanted to look for another 71-P didn't find any. no silver.
    No s mint. only 7 2009-D and that's it
    and on top of that 11 rolls were one short and 1 rolls was 2 short. I am not surprised when there is one short and don't think anything of it. but 12? really? $1.30 short. Looks like the company doin the rollin is makin some extra change.

    OK had time to go through the nice Ender box of Cents I posted about the other day, plus another 21 rolls more ($10 BWR and one CWR).

    20160607_152432.jpg

    As you can see, it had 3 Enders. A 1907 Indian Head (my first found IH ever!!!), a 1940-P, and a 1956-P.

    The box wasn't really supurb, count-wise, but I found an additional 10 wheatbacks in the 21 loose rolls, so in all there were 26 wheatbacks, one Indian, 20 Canadians, and a few other keepers I saved.

    1907, 1916, (2) 1939, (2) 1940, (2) 1944, (2) 1945, 1945-S, (2) 1946, 1947, 1948, 1949, 1950, 1951, 1951-D, 1956, (3) 1956-D, (2) 1957-D, 1968-S, (2) 1970-S, and a few 2009s.

    Nice find on the IHC. I haven't pulled one out of a roll since November. I used to average one every ~$800 in cents but haven't had any luck in awhile.

    Thanks! Yeah it was my first, so... pretty hard to find nowadays. I've been looking for one since the 1970s, though I didn't really start going through more than a couple of bags/boxes per year until maybe 3 years ago (for you youngsters, coins used to come in sacks in the 1970s/1980s, or at least they did in NH where I grew up).

    My Dad started looking for them when he was a kid too. He's found maybe a roll or two. He said they weren't common even back in the 1950s.

    I looked through a box of quarters and dimes today. No silver quarters but a 1972s proof. In the dimes a 1972s proof. My first dime proof and a 1944 mercury dime. My fourth of the year!

    Just keep searching. Silver is out there. You should find one in box 2 and if not there will be one in box three. Sometimes you will go through a rough patch and find nothing for 8 boxes straight and then you'll hit the jack pot. I had that happen to me then I was finding 2 to 3 silvers a box for 8 boxes after a 12 box skunk streak.

    Bmann, your luck is as poor as mine. I've stopped locally searching halves because my finds were zilch after 30+ boxes. Silver recharge where I live is nonexistent, and not worth my time. It's either this or the local coin courier has a newer counting and wrapping machine that rejects silver. Regardless, I could have bought numerous ounces of silver coins or bullion had I spent the 40 hours working instead of ordering, going through boxes, and depositing the rejects...such is life.

    I was getting silvers. Seems like someone turned off the faucet.
