    Almost done with the box of 2011D cents. Man, I haven't seen anything that looks other than MS63-67. All bright shiny, perfect, boring coins !

    I absolutely love finding foreign coins, even when they aren't worth much. They're just so fun and quirky to have ^_^. I have a Centavos (Brazil), bunch of Canadian coins, and Yi Yuan (Chinese, and possibly spelled wrong >_>) all picked from circulation and roll searching.

    How big is a Morgan or Peace dollar? Like, is it the same size as a Susan B., a JFK, an IKE, or what?

    Got a box of dimes from BoA today and found a 1952 dime. :/ I've ALWAYS have gotten at least one from these boxes.

    Same size as an Ike.

    If you are going to do this, buy a Red Book.

    Tons of info

    I picked up $50 in cents (wrapped in rolls labeled pennies). I traded a brinks box of shinny 2011 sheild cents and I ended up with $30 of brinks wrapped shinny 2007 and 2008 rolls of memorial cents along with the usual mix of coppers and zincs.

    $100 in clear wrapped dimes - skunkability
    Broke my 3 day silver streak
    The clear wraps never seem to work out for me and they are a pain to dump in my area
    maybe a different branch will trade me for some Q's
    Where do the clear come from? Brinks?

    1916 Mercury Dime

    Hoping for some help here on a value

    I have a 1916 Mercury dime in my collection in AG (almost good) or G (good) condition. You can make the date out with a little effort but it is for sure a 1916. The mint mark is gone or maybe it never had one. The edges are smooth and the details on the back are smooth but you can certainly tell the torch is still there and the winged face is still there, just major wear on the edges. Please let me know what you guys think. I'm sure a picture would help I'll try and post one later.

    I did a box of nickels and for the first time in a while, I found no War Nickels. However, I did stumble upon my first proof nickel, a 1979-S.

    Had the day off took a road trip west of my area through some little Amish towns out towards Lancaster, PA. Found close to $900 in halves. 1 x 1964, 1 x 1967, and 1 x 1969. Beats a skunk.

    Did a box of Halves - Skunk.
    Boxe of Dimes - 1 x Rosie

    I just went through the remainder of my dime rolls ($65) and got skunked. So, my totals after $100 worth of dimes and $100 worth of halves is plus one Canadian dime. I dunno if I can devote this much time to this. Maybe I'll pick up some halves now and then.
