One buff and one war nick outta 5 boxes? Damn, that sucks dude. Boxes don't sound too hot in your area, maybe you're getting my dumps.

My one box of nickels today gave me a beat AG-G 1943-P. Dimes gave up a '49-S, which fills a hole.

 

For some reason I'm never able to find coins from San Francisco. How often does one find them?

 

Haven't posted for a while. I have been looking through pennies every now and then at work(busy summer) pulling any wheat that I find. Over the summer I found in my register a silver dime, a quarter and a war nickle. Thought I had been doing really well silver-wise. Then today happened. Went to the bank for work and in the change I got six rolls of quarters. I noticed right off the bat that one quarter showing in a paper roll was silver. Yes! Then I looked in the partially rolled up front of another roll, a '40. Two silver! I got back to work, opened both rolls, and they were solid silver!! I couldn't believe it! Two rolls of silver quarters, mid-thirties all the way to '64, with one very worn standing liberty. I have been reading this list, wishing I could find a silver treasure, not believing that I would, and now I have!
Happy holidays!

I am so jealous. . AWESOME find.
You have spurred me to buy rolls of quarters now.

 

Check this guy out (not me). Talk about dedication.

Went half-shopping today in Lovingston, VA, a small town in the Blue Ridge foothills. Two shotgun rolls from one bank that said they had lots more -- skunked. Five CWRs from a bank down the street -- skunked again. I'd expected better. Guess I have been spoiled.

 

You don't really hear much about people finding silver quarters. I was planning on setting aside some of my tax money next year to start searching half rolls by the box. I was amazed at this find. The quarter count is: '36-2, '40-2, '41-1, '42-2, '43-3, '44-4, '45-4, '47-2, '48-2, '51-2, '52-2, '53-2, '54-1, '56-2, '57-3, '58-3, '59-1, '60-7, '61-1, '62-9, '63-11, and '64-15. There was also the worn walker and what looks to be a worn '32, the two guessable. And I counted three times, there are 83 quarters total, so the rolls had extras!

 

Great score, Aennedry. Gratz!

 

Very nice Aennedry

Morning rounds for halves.

Local grocery: none

Next bank: $4 worth, all clad/circulated

Next bank: $7 worth, 2 clad, 12 40% (!)

Next bank: none

Next bank: none

Next bank: "We've only got this envelope with $4.50 worth. Let me count them again for you." (opens envelope to reveal 9 Eisenhowers) "Oh, those aren't half-dollars -- sorry, I guess we don't have any." (I snagged the Ikes anyhow, at full face, of course. Wonder how much the depositor got...)

 

Nice find on the more than half a roll of 40%ers. I had a teller sell me $10 in ikes as halves before, as that's what he gave the customer for them.

 

Hah! I got my son 2 rolls of pennies at the first bank, and we just went through them -- two wheaties, maybe 25 coppers, and about 10 2009/2010s. I think I'll go back to that bank this afternoon; that seems like a better percentage of wheaties than I'd expected, and he was thrilled with the hunt.

 

Just picked up boxes of pennies, nickels and dimes from Wells Fargo this morning and placed my first order for $1000 in Half dollars which should be here in a week or so Will report results when i have em!

 

Extra money on your hands?

 

2 rolls pennies and nickels and 3 rolls dimes. A single wheat. That put a damper on the rest of the evening.
