    Went to the bank and bought a bunch of rolled quarters, got some state hole fillers. Also found two national parck quarter.s. It seems I don't find those much, pretty uncommon to find them.

    I find that getting quarters from banks is a loosing proposition. If I get the quarters jones I hit the carwashes and laundromats. I get a much better return for time doing that. I don't get more than $20 from any one business at a time, they have to have change for their customers. I think that the reason that I see more goodies is that the customers are hitting the change jars, sofa cushions and the back of the sock drawer so that there is a fair amount of older coins and stuff people threw back as a curosity and now need a couple more bucks to knock the mud off the old jalopy.

    Box of dimes. 56, 24D (D is small compared to other Merc D mints that I have, I wonder if that is some sort of variety?)

    Spent Sat morning hitting up some banks for halves. One mentioned to me that people always ask for them. I commented on how I had $240 rolled in my car if they wanted them. They said it would make someone "very happy". Obviously I dumped the $240 on them and went to TD to get rid of the rest. At TD bank I filled a bag right away and the teller noted again how everyone is always asking for halves. She bought $12.50 to put in her tray and sell to people. Dumped the rest and was on my way. Managed to pick up $170 in dimes and scored 1 x 1948 Roosie.
    $1970 searched this month for 2 x Roosie. My volume is way down due to being sick and being busy and it is showing in my silver productions.

    Cashed in a couple hundred in clad and stopped at another bank for halves and dimes. No halves - $100 in dimes - skunk
    $2070 searched for 2 x Roosie in November
    I hope the 2 boxes of halves I pick up tomorrow treat me better than what I have been pulling lately.
    I plan to hit the bank hard on Friday and battle all the Black Friday traffic

    I'm off work this week , so this morning I ran into town and exchanged two quarter rolls for 2 dime and twenty cent rolls. Best dime rolls in a long time as I got 5 Silvers which included 1955 s ! I bet I have been skunked in the last 10-15 dime rolls. Guess it evens out in the long run. Haven't looked at the cent rolls yet.

    Uh, 5 silvers would be great for 50+ rolls, let alone 12-17. Nice find.

    This whole working from home thing is gonna suck for my roll searching habit, at least for now.

    Just went to go pick up my two boxes of halves and there was not enough tellers or the right teller was not there so they had them but could not give them to me. I got the shakes now! Now I have to wait until tomorrow? How can that be! I got the sickness for sure.

    Wrapped up a Dunbar box of cents this morning and was amazed by the results. Received about $7 in BU cents ranging from 1959-1974-D. Four rolls were nothing but BU lincolns. This box was loaded and ultimately ended up with $16 in copper total. Found two 1960 small dates and four 1960-D small dates, so that was great. And finally, the box only yielded 6 wheats, but one was a 1917 and a 1920-S. Going to try another one after work from the same bank, can lightning strike twice? I'll post some pics after work of this batch.
