Pictures are bad but I'm in a hotel room hunting coins...

How often do you find a WAM? Do you find one in every box you do? And how do you tell if its a WAM, do you use a loop or magnifying glass? Thanks again

 

I've searched about $15k worth of cents. In that $15k I've pulled out 48 1998 WAM's, 1 1999 WAM and like 64 2000 WAMs. I used a 16x loupe to check my coins https://www.whitman.com/store/Inventory/Detail/1020-16X-Magnifier

As for whether or not it is a wam, here is some good info. About 1/2 way down the page:

Thanks again and i have the same loupe. Thanks for the information

 

No problem

 

Not roll searching exactly but I was in my mates car and noticed a large pile of change. I asked to go through it and I found three wheaties. I was suprised, I usually only find 3-4 a year in my pocket change. The oldest one was a 1924.

 

4 boxes of halves:
1944-P Walker
1964-P Ken
2x40%(67, 68D)
3 Proof (81s, 90s, 92s)

 

Asked for half dollars at the bank today. They didn't have any but the teller said they had 17 Ike's. Picked 'em up and found no silver, but I think I will keep them because I don't get them much here.

 

thats cool , 'cause the other day when I picked up my halves,she said she had other stuff also,...got 21 Ikes just like you received. Pretty cool,...told her to keep her eye out for the unusual stuff.

 

I got 10 rolls of pennies from the credit union today. Fortunately, they didn't try and charge me a nickel each after 5, like they did last time.
Got a 61 Canadian and a 43 Canadian(I think my oldest yet). Then 2x 59D's, 2x 60D's, 1x 61D, 1x 64, 4x 64D's, 1x 65, 4x 66, 3x 67, 1x 68D, 3x 69, 1x 69D, 1x 70S, and 1x 74S. No wheaties! That was a bummer. I don't have the know how, nor the time to look for error coins. I don't know how you guys do it. So I am just looking for old and foreign pennies. I also picked out a bunch of newer ones that looked nice enough to replace some in my collection.

 

$250 quarters - 5x bicentennial
$250 dimes - 1952, 1961

 

BREAKING NEWS ALERT: a silver quarter found in one of 20 CWR!

It's really hard to find a silver quarter in a roll...I've gotten almost all of my silver quarters from tellers. I also got three silver dimes in CWR. One bank is saving all their CWR for me.

At a second bank I got 10 part silver halves. The ten halves came from a teller who had none but grabbed $5.50 in halves from another teller's tray...without asking.

At first I felt a little guilty because all of them looked silver and I thought that the other teller might have been saving them. But there was one clad mixed in the middle so I think it was just coincidence that so many were silver.

 

Not a bad day at all

 

No great dates or old designs, but I'm not complaining about adding another 1.877 ounces to my collection of silver! And I only stopped at two banks.

 

$10 CWR + $1.50 loose Halves - 16x 40%
$250 BWR dimes - skunk
$238.50 BWR/loose quarters - 2x 1976
Great day

 

Dang, you beat me for today's silver total!

But I will sleep well with my silver quarter under my pillow...

 

2 boxes of halves:
7-40%, 14 NIFC

4 boxes of dimes:
3 boxes of 2015P, 4th box had a 54d Roosie covered in blue glitter.

 

Monday I found a 1969-d rdv-008, or type b clad quarter. Grade, maybe vf-25 or 30. First clad type b quarter I've found

 

So I was just unwrapping all the solid date rolls when something caught my eye:


My first dime blank planchet. Also cool that I can attribute it to the year and mint

 

You definitely have an knack for finding things. I'm always amazed.
