<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JonJ, post: 2835219, member: 89574&quot;]Hi, first post. I did a little bit of CRH with cents back in the &#039;80s, but nothing else until recently. I&#039;ve gone through $1550 in dimes so far (three Loomis boxes, the rest a mix of CWR and MWR), and found 7 silver Rosies and a silver Canadian dime, in addition to the occasional cents and foreign coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Reading about all the half dollar searching made me want to get into that, but nobody had more than a few on hand until yesterday. I had to get some sunglasses fixed, so afterwards I ran by a bank I hadn&#039;t been to before. I had $300 in cash and asked if they had any halves. The lady said they had $300 in CWRs, quite a coincidence, and got my hopes up saying that an older guy had brought them in and said they were his collection. Results: all clad, tons of bicentennials and NIFCs, but nothing unusual except for a gold-plated 1980-D that was stamped with &quot;1960 - 1980&quot;. I don&#039;t think I&#039;m going to hang on to any of them, even the plated one - I&#039;m not a fan of defaced coins. So, those are going to the CU&#039;s coin machine and I&#039;ll try to get some more elsewhere.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
