Love the Walking Liberty Ender. Never seen an obverse side showing.

 

Yeah love the enders!

 

Wow way to go Ron!!!!! That's awesome!!

 

S

Shoot Ron, that's like hitting a Royal Flush in 5 card Stud. No wild cards either. I am still amazed.

 

I think it helps disprove that the suppliers (Brinks, etc) are sorting out the silver. I bet there were 15 rolls total with silver enders, including several Walkers and Bens, as well as several proofs.

 

4th buffalo CRHing in the past week and a half!!! A 1936 to add to the 34, 35, and dateless that I plan on tossing in the vinegar bath.


I've been finding all these buffalos, but war nickels are scarce around here. What are you fellow CRHers buff/war ratios like?

 

Yeah they don't sort out silver. That's a myth created by bummed out roll hunters.
It's not possible in a large, high speed operation.

 

Picked up some rolls while depositing checks today...

$10 BWR halves - nada

$15 CWR dimes - the first roll had a bulge in it, which immediately made me think I was being shorted 9 cents. But instead the bulge coin turned out to be a 2010 Australia 5 cent... so I was only shorted about 6 cents with the exchange rate being what it is.

Only other coin of note in the dimes was a 1991 Canada

$10 CWR nickels - 1940 (very worn), 2 1958-D (thrown back), 3 Canada 2007, 2009, 2012, and a 7-sided United Arab Emirates coin. If there's a date it's in Arabic. Interesting find though.

$5 CWR pennies - best find here was a dime. Up 9 cents. Also 1957-D, 2009

 

Holy cow, Batman!

 

My Texas trip starts tomorrow. Plenty of small towns to hit on the way there. Wish me luck, lots of it. I will keep a tally of all the banks I hit. I am leaving early in the morning so I can CRH and make my business appointments. Hopefully I can improve on my .0723oz of Silver this month.

 

Best thing about these trips is the free gas money!

 

Been a while since I had time to hunt. Finished a box of BWR Cents yesterday. Pretty lackluster box.

4 Canadians, the oldest being a 1937 George VI, which was the best find in the box.



10 wheatbacks, including: 1942, 1944, 1944-S (severely damaged), (2) 1945, (2) 1948, 1952, 1956-D, 1958 (with a little luster)

Plus: (2) 1971-S, (5) 2009-Ps

Pretty weak box, but then iirc I haven't seen a box with more than 12 wheatbacks in some time.

 

I have not seen a box with ten wheats in a long time. If I found 10 wheats a box average I'd search ten boxes a week!

 

19 CWR of dimes, and a box worth of nickels (43 MWR, 7 CWR) produced these four little fun coins today. I also found 4 each of 2009-D nickels and dimes.

 

Average for me and for my Dad had been 16 per box, for the past few years. This year my numbers have dropped somewhat. But you never know what will be in the next box.

 

You are right. I'm happy if I get a box with ten wheats. About two months ago i had the best box of my life with 22 and another with 15 back to back. I can't remember the count accurately but I know it's close.

 

I go through rolls of pennies, generally get $10.00 worth, 20 rolls. Found one wheat penny 1931. Wheat pennies are getting harder to find

 

Be happy with that! I've found tons of wheats over the years but I've never found any dated 1931-33

 

My Texas Quest for silver begins now! Wish me luck! I'll be driving through several thunderstorms too.
