Grabbed $100 in quarters, $100 in dimes, and $5 in cents after I dumped the week's earliest searches(found a 1940 wheat, a zincon, and a gold jackson dollar in the reject bin). Quarters were skunk, cents gave me 3 wheats and 6 Canadians. The dimes gave me a 1952. That is only my 3rd silver dime in $885 searched.

 

Found 3 wheats at work today: 46P, 55D, 56D.
Also a 1955D Jefferson.

 

go into multiple banks and ask for them or you can buy them online

 

Picked up a box of cents from the local B.O.A. The rolls were brinks wrapped clear plastic. I think I have had better luck with the paper BWRs.

7 Wheats: 42S, 51D, 52S, 53S(2), 54S,58D
1 Canadian Cent: 1984

Also some others from the 60's & 70's to look at under the magnifier.

3rd time recycled $100 dimes. skunk! ugh.

 

Aw, just keep on searching! You'll strike gold silver eventually!

 

I know. I was hoping for at least some silver or silver canadian dimes.up to 6 U.S. silver dimes and 8 Canadian silver dimes and 3 foreign coins. nothing like seeing that silver edge in a freshly cracked roll. I have unrolling them down to a science now. lol

 

I know what you mean, you can always tell if there's something interesting in the roll just by opening it up a bit. That thrill of the silver edge... makes me want to drive to the bank right now

 

$40 BWR nickels - 46 (high AU), 58 & 99-S (proof).

 

Interesting what’s happening to the U.S. Dollar.

Went to Europe and didn’t bother looking for silver in the Euro (never happened) but when I traveled to Switzerland, I got some spending money and was surprised that with the find of a 1968 5 Franc piece, there were still some old date pieces in circulation. When I thought about going to the bank to get a ‘box’ of 5 Swiss Franc pieces (they are about the size of a U.S. Half) to look for silver, I realized that, aside from costing about $5,400 for the equivalent size to a box of U.S. Halves, that the ROI just isn’t there. A 5 Swiss Franc piece costs about $5.40 and if you strike silver, you’ve spent $5.40 for .40 Oz of silver. That’s almost equivalent to a 90% U.S. Half and at today’s silver price can get you $9.30! Not even double!

A 90% silver find in the U.S.A, will get you 16.7 times face in silver. So what has happened?

While, at least based on silver value, the $0.50 U.S. half could probably buy you 5 Swiss Francs back in 1967 (the last year of Swiss silver coinage), the U.S. Dollar fiat currency has been so devalued over time that now it costs $5.40 of our dollars to buy that same 5 Swiss Franc coin. That’s an 1080% decline in the value of OUR money over the last 46 years! An annual 5.31% decline.

Does that bother anyone?

So I picked up about $300 in Swiss Francs. The U.S. Dollar is TOAST! Keep searching for that Silver!
