Roll-searchers, post your results!

Are these customer rolled halves or from the armored carrier? None of the banks here take change that is rolled it has to be loose so they can run it through the counter. Also two of the banks there a tellers that can hear a silver coin bounce at another branch let alone theirs. My daughter is a teller and she gives any silver she finds to other tellers that keep Silver, I thought about giving her supper to the neighbors they like food too.

Wow that is nutz!!!!!!!! Wicked nutz even!!!!I thought my 9 40%ers were a nice find today...But 69 wow! wow! wow! Your find is what all keeps us searching......

 

Went through two lousy boxes of halves today (I think i've already gone through them) but picked up 38 Ike's so it was an okay day.

 

Those look like pretty sweet rolls Bob!

 

I have found all of mine in customer rolls, none in Fed rolls yet. Thank you all. It was a good day. Keep on searching... Kent that is too funny about giving your daughters food to the neighbors.

 

I know the feeling.....I have seen the same 1974 Kennedy half with a huge hole in it twice while searching boxes.....

 

Went through $25 of pubic wrapped pennies last night and found found the following

1 2009 Formative years penny
2 1957D
1 1947 Canadian penny
2 Canadian comm.
1 1939P
1 1944P
1 1956D
1 1953D
1 foreign coin worth 2 pfennig

 

I found 4 beautiful 1956-D cents and a real nice 1948-S (which I scanned upside down:goofer

 

Kennedy Proof Bonanza

I've searched 3 boxes since I last posted.

I'll safe box #1 for last (where I posted the proofs).

Box 2:
3 proofs - 73s, 79s, 93s (one in terrible shape, the other two in average circulation shape)
2 2003, 2 2004 and 1 2005
2 40%ers

Box 3:
2002, 2007
3 40%ers including a 65 in AU
1 Franklin 1960

Box 1:
16 40%ers
4 1964 Kennedys
2 Franklins 49d and 60 (I need a 49 (p) for my Dansco, DARN)
2 2004s, 1 2005
16 Proofs, 15 of which are in EXCELLENT condition

14 1979s, 1 1993s, 1 1988s

I obviously don't need 15 1979s proofs, so I looked on the Bay and the "type 2" 1979s sells for a lot more. Anyone have a reference for me to find out what that is?

Here are the pics.....I know they aren't great, but take it from me, all but one look like they were cracked out of the plastic, maybe touched once or twice (little smudges), a couple have a contact mark, then put in those rolls. It was a fun box! I just wish I could get the Walkers like others have found in bunches.

 

Wow amazing finds :thumb: look at all those proofs!! With two boxes with nothing good in it for me im jealous :crying:
I can't wait for next week though I got an account at a new bank and they will order 4 boxes of halves for me a week that should keep me busy hopefully will have better luck with them too!

 

Finally some halves to search!

Well, none of the banks I ordered halves from ever got any for me, so I went downtown to see if I could find some loose ones to look through. Finally, I found a reasonable number - one box, 66 rolls, and 15 loose coins.

From the 66 plus loose coins:
2x64
2x65
1x66
2x68d
2x69d
1x 80s mirrored proof
1x full roll straight from the mindn of 09d
I thought post 01 halves never saw circulation. Anyone have any insight on this or know if I ought to keep them?

From the box:
1x43 Walker
2x63d Franklin
2x67
1x68d
1x06d proof (with a scratch, but otherwise quite shiny)
2x06d
1x06p

Not the mother load that some others ahve pulled in, but I was quite pleased. My first 90%ers, to include a Walker and two Frankies. Fun to find stuff like that.

Let me know if anyone has any info about the '09s.

-David

 

I'm thinking the 09's will be circulation. I have found a few as well.

 

I don't think the 09's were put out for circulation at all. I'd keep em. They sold for a premium by the mint.

 

i keep all 2009 coins i find you just never know

 

2-3 months ago I went through a box of halves that was probably 1/3 '09's. Also many 07's & 05's. Still trying to figure out how many to keep.

 

Good Day For Cents

Went to the bank yesterday to get some rolls for work - didn't have time to peruse them yesterday. Nothing of interest in the quarters, dimes or nickels - however in the 10 rolls of cents I got I found.....

1915D in G4 condition
1903 in VF/XF condition

I haven't found an IHC in a roll in YEARS! I'm a happy camper today.

 

wow 1903

 

nice find 1903!

 

nice find

 

VERY cool. I've never found an IHC..........yet.
