Finished off a box of CWR dimes today (had told you about the first $75 yesterday). Much to my surprise, I found 3 silver dimes! 1942, 1957,...
I've gone through 3 boxes of CWR cents and $75 CWR of dimes this week. Found only 16 wheatbacks and no silver dimes. Oldest wheatback was 1939....
So far I've only found 3, so... I'm filling 2 books. Extras beyond that go to my Dad first, then maybe I'll give a few to my niece and nephews....
Wow that's lucky!! What mint mark is on that 42? I only ask because 1942-S has been particularly ellusivefor me. :-)
Hmm. I know the word went out to sell silver coins for profit. My dad was pretty unhappy when my grandpa cashed in most of his old silver...
I'm gathering them for my heirs. :-) Seriously, all of my coins are circulated. I'm less interested in values, more interested in finding the...
Your experience mirrors mine. When I first started collecting in the 80's, there were no silver, no buffalos, few wheats. I think everyone sold...
I just finished off a very weak BWR box of Loomis cents. Coins seem pretty hit or miss since my bank switched to Loomis. Anyway, there were 15...
!!! !!! !!! WOW !!! !!! !!!
Was going through my recent BWR wheatback finds, looking to see if any filled holes in my primary collection. To my amazement, I filled 4 slots!...
Nice coins. :-) The red book lists 1995-S proofs, but not 1995-D proofs.
Went through $200 in CWRs quarters yesterday and found my first proof quarter. Somewhat scrached up, yes, but precious to me!! 2001-S North...
Wow!! Congratulations! If you find lots of nice doubles, i'd probably be interested in buying some. I've only found like 8 Rosies and no Mercs.
Cool! Let's see them. :-)
Ah. I look at every one, as I'm still upgrading my coin book. I've found that sometimes I'll miss a dirty rim silver dime when I just look at...
Went through a BWR box of pennies and $8.50 of CWR pennies today. The box had 20 wheats (one 1952 with luster and one a worn 1944-S), (2) 1968-S,...
Wow your eyes must be tired! Nice find on the silver dimes.
I too have been filling a book of Canadian pennies from US circulation. The banks around here dish em out, but won't take them back. I've got...
I'm on vacation in MN, but I've found time to go through some BWR nickels each evening. Mostly I'm finding very low quality coins here, as the...
Getting a sack of coins is like getting CWRs. Whatever someone was saving, all together in a sack. Wish I had access to them.
