Roll-searchers, post your results!

Halves Box 4 of 6 had 3 silver enders showing when I opened it. I flipped the rolls and found 3 more. 1 of them is a double ender with the obverse of ‘64s showing on both ends!

I absolutely guarantee this will be my best box ever with regard to silver finds, woohoo!!!

I’ll report tomorrow or so when I finish searching the box.

Finished my first box of cents. A nice 74P clipped planchet came out of the first roll. The rest of the box was down hill from there. only 6 wheats and nothing else of note besides a 1947 Canadian 1c.

 

My favorite teller set aside a couple wheats for me, lo and behold, they were both hole fillers. What are the odds?


The '31 is very cool, I've never personally found a depression era (31-33) coin in the wild.

 

I made up 10 rolls with 10 copper to try the second bank.
Got a mission after work tomorrow.

 

Can't wait to see the resulting pics Berto, looks like you got a good one! Are those Loomis yellow wrappers or NF String?

 

NF delivered by Loomis.

 

Good to know, thanks. I've only found 1 silver in about 4 boxes of NF String wrappers. Glad to know you can find silver in them.

 

I took 10 penny rolls with 10 copper in each roll to the second bank and traded. Have gone through 5 and got 20 more ugly copper to use. Nothing earth shattering to report.

 

Final count from halves Box 4, which had 6 silver enders, one of which was a double ender. Two rolls held 5 silvers each:

1, ‘51 Franklin
7, ‘64P JFKs
3, ‘65 JFKs
4, ‘66 JFKs
16, ‘67 JFKs
15, ‘68 JFKs
7, ‘69 JFKs

8, 90%
45, 40%

By far MY BEST BOX EVER, WOOHOO!!!

on to Box 5...HH all

 

A 1912 Canadian dime last box, now this



I only count it as half a dime...it's super thin! Amazing there is any detail left.

My first Barber dime crh...it really is half as thin as a regular dime. No reeding left either. I knew from the edge it would be super old.

 

Nice Berto, congratulations!

 

Nice Score Froggy!

 

Berto Nice score!

 

Good evening everyone, The start to this week not so good, out of four boxes 1 nicely worn 68, I also pulled a magic coin. Hope you all are doing well, looking forward to seeing your posts.

 

Half Box 5 of 6 yielded 6, 40%ers with 5 of them BU. This box contained more coins marked by local hunters I’ve seen in boxes for several years.

But I’m satisfied!

1 box to go (6 of 6). No enders showing...

 

Good Luck. Glad you got a good score.

 

Glad it's raining Silver for some of you. I won't get my boxes of halves til the end of the week. I am totally due. It's funny how we all feed off each other. I don't think I would ever have thought I would be doing 4 boxes of halves a week when I first started CRH.

 

Fun find on the cents box today!

 

I know what you mean, when I started this I never thought I would be doing 12-16 boxes a week. Nor did I think I would be still doing it for four years and still finding some very nice scores. You will get there too just don't give up.

 

Well I don't do 12-16 boxes a week. Instead, I'm taking about 3 weeks to do ONE box. !!! (I'm very slow as I only look through 3 or 4 rolls a night). Most recent box of halves finished last night finally yielded some decent silver....

12 40%'ers (2x66, 6x67, 2x68d, 2x69d), a handful of NIFC's (03d, 2x03p, 05p), and a single impaired proof (11s).

Gonna focus strictly on cents and nickels for a few weeks and get a few more boxes of halves ordered later this month.
