@TexAg heal well! I’ve been recovering from abdominal surgery since Tuesday. The best parts have been searching a few rolls and catching up on...
@jonathan layne here is a photo of the recent Ike, as well as the 800 or so I’ve stashed for future variety hunting. I have my work cut out for...
This week I finally cashed-in coins I had found the last few years while metal detecting. I had washed all the coins in a sink of soapy water,...
@jonathan layne 1972D Ike, maybe XF condition.
3 banks tonight, and 1 had $100 in cwr halves...nada. 1 gas station had 1 Ike, which was better than nothing!
Technically, I think 1 box of halves weighs 27.4 lb, but maybe I’m showing my age by worrying about the extra 2.4 lb :)
1 bank tonight had $7.50 in loose halves, with 1 being a difficult to see 40%er if one was only edge checking...Yes![ATTACH]
Well, there was a 10 cent profit in the customer wrapped nickels I picked up at the cu in my office building today, but not much else. Oh well,...
I work in a building with about 350 people and there is a small cu inside it. Today I stopped in at the cu to make a cash deposit and discovered...
It is difficult for us to see in the photo, but I am guessing the "bumps" you see are a result of die chips.
Tonight I stopped at the cu I mentioned in my last post and bought all the halves they had, which was $20 in cwrs and $120 in mwrs. Then I...
@TexAg you are rocking the boxes of halves no matter how you measure it, congrats!
I stopped at a credit union near my doc’s office after an appointment this morning. I asked the teller if they had any halves and she asked how...
@TexAg, yes, and several of the modern Kennedy silver proofs have relatively low mintage, which adds a small premium to the value. I’m satisfied...
I received a call this morning from a cu asking if I wanted $150 in mwr halves. Of course, I said yes. I had stopped there about 2 weeks ago and...
1 bank today had $7 loose halves that yielded 1996 and 2002 Cu-Ni proofs in really nice condition...Finally two keepers for me, yes!
Bottom line upfront is my area is a dead zone wrt finding collectible halves in mwrs. I wish I lived in an area with coin counters in most banks...
The first $250 of the $500 bag of mwr halves yielded only an impaired 77S proof. I really don’t like these local bags of rolls :hungover:
@TexAg your 7 ender box should hold 60-70 coins, and maybe a few more...fun! I searched a couple hundred dollars worth of mwr halves and about...
@theshoegazer looks like a greaser to me, nice finds!
