    This is the first time of getting rolls at the bank to go through. I got $10 of pennies and the first roll I opened had a 1952D and looks to be about XF40? I hope I get that lucky on the next 19 rolls.

    Finished dimes and nickels with nothing to keep.
    9 out of 10 penny rolls gave a few 82 and perhaps a few others. Had a plan to go to the drive through at the bank.
    But Harvey shot me down. It's been raining it's arse off.

    Got another $58.50 in CRH and loose halves from the bank the $300-worth came from, $20.50 from a BoA, and a single half from BB&T, and nada, aside from a nice looking 2012-D. Bb&T said their vault person will be in on Monday, and there may be more in the vault, so I'll check back then.

    Two boxes of cents. 15 wheats per box..nothing out of the ordinary. Mainly 40s and 50s with the oldest being a 1937. 3 canadians all together. A little over a quarter of each box is copper if anyone is interested in that.

    I had a tube of 64 dimes put aside. When I can see I'm going to see if there is a clean D in the tube.

    Got another $41 worth of halves from the CU and BB&T and got nada aside from NIFC halves, most of which weren't even that great-looking this time around.

    We still have roads closed and such. It isn't raining this very moment but more is coming. I might not get to a bank before next Monday. It's about to kill me.

    Ended up with:
    57-40%ers Including a 1970S Proof (my first!)
    1 - 90% Ken

    8.7916 oz today! I'll take it :)

    Ended up with 8 Wheat pennies. Oldest being 1945. All about Fine or better. So now I bought a box of $25. We will see what I get.

    Another box of nickels under my belt. Have been skunked on silver from other boxes lately but still I find nickels so much fun. I keep probably around a dollar worth each time.
    My finds-
    59 D (x3), 57, 57 D (x2), 56, 56 D (x2), 55 D, 54 D (x2), 54 S, 53, 53 D, 52 D, 49, 48, 47 D (x2), 47 S, 46, 42 (nonsilver), 41 (x6), 40 (x3), 40, 39 (x2)
    And 2 buffalo nickels, 1925 and Dateless.
    Also a Bermuda 5 cents. This is the first box in a while where I didn't get a Canadian... kinda miss them :)

    A blessing and a curse. I can say confidently that you get better luck with customer wrapped rolls. So ya, he can do quantity, but I've seen him (furryfrog) go boxes and boxes till he finds something. Stick to the teller trays, you're not missing out on much.

    Truth.
    Its all about quantity. I liken searching boxes to clear cutting a forest to find 1 single tree you were looking for.

    @furryfrog02 where/how do you dump your coins? I'm curious because of the quantity. I turn heads with a single box of coins.
