Roll-searchers, post your results!

Haven't had a chance to roll search in the last few days because of labor day, but i did pull a 1963 Canadian cent out of my till at work today. Obverse is nearly worn off but the back looks good.

Box of halves...nada.
10 rolls pennies...4 wheats including a nice toned xf 1935.
2 rolls dimes...a nice 1968s Proof!
3 rolls nickels...1945P war nickel!

Not a bad day

 

Has anyone received coin rolls that are like shrink wrap around them ? When i receive them you can see both ends and the rims ,
they are packed tight , the wrapper is hard to remove very odd, where do these come from.

Sandy, those are the brinks wrappers that I used to get when I ordered coins from my bank. They make it easy to look at the rims of the coins, but they are awful to open.

 

box of dimes, 1 '46.

Plus 3 quarters (34, 56, 57D) at dump bank.

 

2 Boxes of Dimes on Saturday

Box 1 - 1944 Merc - 1st roll
2 x Roosie
1 x 1951 Canadian 80% silver

Box 2 - 2 x Roosie, 1 being a gorgeous 1946 in AU condition

Those are Brinks wrappers. If you squeeze the roll sideways, like you are trying to flatten out the stack (think like a deck of cards spread out sideways), the coins will all slide out. Nice and easy.

I've been taking pics of boxes and wrappers to start a thread for a sort of "encyclopedia" of wrappers and whatnot. I'll post a link when I get it started.

 

Nice score on the Washies! Love me some silver George's!!

Going to be picking up some dimes after work. Will post results.

 

4 CWR of dimes on my way to the park with my daughter: nothing.

Also - I 'm having a similar problem that someone else noted earlier: the thread shows that there is another page (beyond post #15644), but I can't navigate to it. I tried with Firefox and Chrome. Weird.

Has anyone read this entire tread? If so, can you quote the best finds?

 

You can ask us regulars for our best finds...

Went through a box of Halves today - SKUNK!

$50 in CWR's Dimes: 1 x 1964 Rosie
$80 in CWR's Nickels: 3 x War Nickels

Not too bad!

 

Ace,
The halves have been tuff, you are making up for it with all the War Nickels you have been pulling.

Pulled 5 40%ers out of a box of halves. That is a googd box these days.

 

Went through $90 in dimes today, $10 being CWR. Nothing. Zip. Nadda. Also saw $1 loose halves. Skunk.

FFFFFFFFFFFF!

I hope my luck improves soon!

 

Yup yup, I would take that box any day. Good job. Now you have $497.50 in gas money.

Had some extra time today and decided to turn in a box of nickels I had done earlier. Wasn't planning on getting coins, but decided to stop and get another nickel box. I pulled 2 war nickels. Also, I got super excited when I saw the faint "V" on the back of a nickel. It is almost completely worn, I would say FR02, but turns out it is an 1888, my oldest coin from circulation. The coin had been around for 100 years 2 years before I was born... WOW!
