Roll-searchers, post your results!

Eh, I have a full $25 box of canadian cents alone from my CRH. That's not including everything else in cents, nickels, etc...that I've searched.

Ugh, I am craving doing some boxes of halves. I could only have a 2 week retirement!

 

Dang. Found a pretty good 1939P but I already had a better one. Messing with watches just now. We are leaving in about 30 minutes to go to the VA for my Dad.

 

A pretty good number of Wheaties from my latest Cents box.



Some highlights:



The Canadian is a 1940, the oldest wheat was a '39, the nicest Wheat was a '44, and the 1961 (although not worth any premium) was a keeper for now just because it was so nice.

 

Box of Halves...Skunk.

 

Picked up the 2 boxes of gold dollars that were mistakenly ordered for me this week.
A few hole filler NFICs, a UK 2o, Proof 1980 SBA, and 4 wide rim 79p's.

 

Friday's results:

$24 MWR pennies: 25-S, 2x42, 44, 45, 46, 46-D ,46-S, 47-D, 52-D, 55-D, 57-D, 10 Canadian, 2002 Australian 5 cents which is bigger than a penny but Garda's stupid machines put in in a penny roll. Love those stupid machines. They give silver and even a shield nickel. Unfortunately, I realized their machines had magnets.

$16 MWR nickels: 6 pre-60, 10 solid rolls of 2016-D

$95 MWR dimes: 1964-D

$10 MWR quarters: nothing of course

 

Yesterday's results:

$16 MWR pennies: 2x44-D, 54-S
$2 CWR pennies: skunk
$38 MWR nickels: 6 pre-60
$50 MWR dimes: 56-D, 58-D, 2x62-D
$5 CWR dimes: skunk
$100 CWR quarters: mostly MS State quarters. Have no idea what to do with them.

Gonna go back to the bank today to see if they have more dimes.

 

Found a 1945D war nickel at BEST vf12 in the last roll I looked through. Going off to the bank etc. before too long.

 

I'd love to get my hands on one of those Constar bags. I get silver out of the reject very often, so imagine what isn't kicked out. Anyone ever have an opportunity to buy them?

 

Our bank had no Half dollar rolls. Got two dime rolls along with replacing the pennies and nickels.
Nothing new so far.

 

Went to the same bank yesterday to see if they had more dimes. Those dimes came from the same batch as Monday's! Found my first Mercury dime! I'll go to the other 2 branches later this week for even more dimes!

$100 MWR dimes: 1951, 1962-D, 1943

 

The lady at the bank gave me 3 Cayman Islands "dimes".
All 2013. Put the best one in a flip.
I found a better 72P nickel.
And my keeps box was getting stuffed.
So changed to pennies only in that box and nickels and dimes in yet another box. Gonna get back to looking through rolls pretty soon.

 

You are like Michael Corleone
"Just when I though I was out, they pull me back in!"

 

Totally. I'm in too deep, I can't get out! I did another box today at lunch. Nothing. Ugh.

 

Coinstars are usually calibrated to spit out silver, slugs, foreign coins etc. some bank machines if they are available to you are better chances of bag buys for deposited silver.
Good luck

 

I'm in a semi dry run
I have gone through nine boxes this week so far with only 4-40s
Way below average.
In the DC area this week and grabbing some Teller coins, nada! Did pick up a Brinks box from a Suntrust, again Nada! Imagine this area is overrun with searchers.

I've had some good runs so Im not discouraged, just have to push through and keep on fishing.
Did find about two full rolls of 2002. P,Ds and a roll of 2004s Threw them back into circulation.

I have 8 boxes waiting till I get back on Friday.

 

Whereabouts in DC area? I'm in Bethesda.

Most banks I hit act like I'm from Mars, so I doubt too many others
are in there asking for coins.

I'm in Arlington this week, traveled up through Waldorf, MD. Picked up a box from Brinks at a Suntrust and 85 Loomis rolls from PNC in La Playa, and then various teller trays and CWRs

 

It's getting so that my penny keep box is looking a lot like another penny collection. Was checking a roll of dimes.
Got sidetracked for dinner. Back at it in a little while.
