I agree with you completely, and I think it's a good idea. However, the problem I see is that I believe they're using the same planchets as the...
I definitely give you credit for toughing it out- it sounds like a pretty unpleasant place to be, to me.
Wow, I had no idea. Very unfortunate that so many coins have been destroyed.
Keep looking- I've found one in about $50 worth of coins (though tonylynch had to go through about 5 boxes or $125) and you've "only" looked...
I have recently started looking for them and out of $250 worth of cents I've found 5 2000 wide AM, none of the other two (1999 or 1998) or of the...
After all the silver halves I've gotten from banks it'd be hard to justify, but maybe I'll find something that'll make it a possibility!
Yeah, it's pretty nice except the middle of the reverse is somewhat worn. There are similar ones selling on eBay for around $10, which I was...
Thanks- I hope your next searches are more fruitful. Am I correct in guessing that "CC" is "Canadian Cent"?
Victor is correct- they go back to the bank. And if your bank doesn't have a counting machine, you usually need to roll them.

Thanks for the response- so you take your cue from the motto and inspect more closely if that seems doubled?
It was recently mentioned by "foundinrolls" in another thread (US Coins / Kennedy Halfs (sic)) that "There are great doubled dies on 1964, 1964...
I have to agree with Victor on this one, I have found coins in circulation that I've kept but aren't in great shape so I'm pretty lax about...
You know I've found 4 or 5 of the same thing (proof-like / mint 1991-D halves) since moving here to Maine, maybe someone cashed in a boat load of...
You may want to check out www.coinrollhunting.com where some guy has posted the results of looking through rolls- will give you an idea of how...
Nice, especially the Walker. Are these rolls from the silver witch?!
Believe it or not that actually sounds quite good! You have found coins I would consider worthy of keeping (Franklin, 90% and 40% silver Kennedy,...
I think that's a good idea, to try out all the denominations. That way you get a feel for what you like to look through. As to what you'll have...
Separate names with a comma.
