WOW! Finding the franklin must have been a real rush!
Also with getting all those 90% halves at face..dang!
I think I need to start searching through halves!

 

I wish I could get "boxes" of halves around here. The banks I have checked with will save the halves that they get in but it can be weeks some times before I get even one or two from them.

 

Went through another bag of halves today didn't find a single silver one

 

Out of 2 bags of cents I found my first blank planchet, 8 2009 cents, 2 cents from Bahamas, and 35 wheat pennies including a BU 1955-S and BU 1957-D and a very nice shiny 1964 canadian cent

 

I have noticed a lot more1959-74 P&D and s few S showing up int just plan pocket change.

 

Found two error Kennedys. One looks like a die crack to me and the other maybe another huge strike thru although I wouldn't rule out post mint damage. I posted both in the error coins forum under 2 Kennedy Errors.

Let me tell you about my TERRIFIC, OUTSTANDING Numismatic day last Saturday. I've been too busy to get these pics, but finally did it.

First, I found 28 rolls of 2009 P dimes at one of my banks. I have been busy selling them since Saturday. My first sold for just under $50 and just over $50, so when I sold my next for a bit more than that, I may have blew it and sold several 2nd chance rolls for in the 50s. I say that, because they have been selling in the 60s and up to 70 since. I keep thinking the price on these will drop because I have now found these dimes in circulation (as you know), and at 3 different banks in my area. So my goal was to sell as fast as I could. Well, with the four I have up now, even if their price doesn't increase, I've made $1100 since Saturday. So, if I cost myself a little money, OH WELL. I have 7 more to auction as well.

THEN, I picked up a box of halves and went through it. BY FAR, the best box I've ever had. I got the following:

• Several 1974 D with doubling on America on back (pics later in error forum). Don't know if they are machine doubling or not.
• A 2003 D
• A 2002 S proof
• 16 40% -- 1 69, 6 67s, 5 68s, 3 69s, 1 70 (very low mintage)
• 12 90% -- 7 64s (many in great shape), 3 Franklins --51, 52, and 63 proof, 2 Walkers 41 and 43

I had NEVER found a walker in my life! What a DAY. Woo HOOO.

Of course, my luck ran out, the box of halfs I searched last night had ZERO keepers. None. I'm still on a high from my Saturday box and dimes though.

Thanks for listening. Oh, and one question.....finding a proof in circulation, obviously it is scratched and not looking as intended, does it carry a premium? or is it just a cool novelty find?

 

Holy expletive! That's amazing. Walkers in 2009! Thanks for sharing!!!

 

HOLY ___!
That is amazing! $1100 on dimes? (RARE DIMES!)
Yeah right, but I had you going didn't I, me calling them rare... LOL!
WOW! 2 Walkers, that is amazing! 1 Frankie! And so much silver!
Bob, you will be making tons of muhla... MUHLA! AHHH!
Congrats
