Picked up a box of halves and dimes....both skunks. Ho hum.

 

$50 BWR dimes... Skunk

Do you guys ever get snarky remarks from tellers when asking for rolls. I seem to get them all the time lol

 

$6.50 loose halves: Skunk
$45 CWR dimes: One Canadian, one 5p
$485 BWR dimes: Three silver Roosies (all in one box)

 

4 boxes of dimes, skunk...
That is my worst batch of dimes ever

 

Sorry! I figured that out later after I had clicked on the link... my mistake and thank you for sending the link out for me. Obviously, I'm pretty noob to the forum

 

This thread is great motivation for me to start searching!

 

Box of nickels (branch ran out of dimes) - 43P

 

Not that much any more. I have my tellers asking me one box or two and if I want them to order more for me. These are my regular banks, and they really know the drill by now. I'm polite and I drop off treats. I pay in cash, I'm always prepared and make the transactions as smooth as possible.

Picked up a box of halves yesterday wasnt expecting much last 5 boxes have been skunks. Opened this box and seen something different you could see some rolls were shorter some taller. I seached them and some were short 1 or 2 coins and others were 1 or 2 more. In the end I ended up with a dollar extra and 3 40% and 2 '64's. Off to dump these and pick up another box.

 

I picked up a roll (appears unopened) of Trumps Castle Casino & Resort half dollars from the bank today. Anyone know if these things are worth anything unopened in the bank roll? The reason I ask is because the wrapper looks somewhat old and I've never heard of Trumps Castle Casino & Resort. Thanks!

Box of halves, 3x40% & 1x64

 

2 more boxes of LOOMIS Dimes - Skunk
There is never any silver in Loomis Boxes. There was a few modern Canadians.
What a terrible week.

Recent results;

2 halves; 0 and 4 40%ers
2 dimes; 1 '61 Canadian.
1 nickel; 3 buffs, 2 dateless.

 

I think I might take a break for roll searching for a while.

I just went through 4 boxes of halves today - 1 40%

Thats 19/20 skunks and 1 box with 1-40%. Its a lost money proposition if I account for gas to pick-up and drop-off. Perhaps I'll make a road trip instead of doing boxes

 

Brutal Results....I'd consider the same if I went through a streak like that. Or when it's no longer fun.

Trump had SEVERAL casino's in Atlantic City. The Taj Mahal, Marina, Castle, etc... some of the casino's failed before the others did and I believe the Castle was one of the earlier ones. Not sure if there is a premium on that roll though, but I'm sure someone that collects defunct casino pieces would LOVE to have this.

 

I would first check if there is a premium on the roll. But you should also weigh the roll, it would be dumb to sell it for only a slight premium if there's silver in it
