For the past month I've been getting boxes with no stamp marks and little to no silver. This week one of the four boxes had a stamp (with a date just 5 day ago), and it gave up three silvers. Hopefully I've made it through the bad boxes.
$2000 halves 2 90% 1 40% 1 proof 2 extra halves
Details:
Box 1: Nothing
Box 2: 1 Kennedy 40%: 1965 2 Kennedy 90%: 1964, 1964D
Box 3: 1 proof: 1987S
Box 4: 2 extra halves

I forgot to add to my original post that one of the rolls had a Susan B. Anthony dollar in place of a half. I thought it was a quarter until I turned it over and saw her looking back at me.. So plus $0.50 out of the $90.00 in CWR's.. |

$2 teller tray halves - skunk
$250 Brink's rolls halves (1/2 box a bank had on hand) 1 90% Kennedy 2 40% Kennedys (69D, 67) 2 Proof (71S, 81S) 3 NIFC (08D, 2-03P) I didn't expect much as I suspected someone turned in a half a box after weight cheking them but decided to take the 1/2 box anyway and was very pleasantly surprised...my 1st 90% in a long time.

Report on dimes searched:
$255.00 -- 51 CWRs
Silver dimes found - one -- 1/1960 2009 dimes found - none -- This one is getting old. We are one-third of the way through 2010 now and still not one 2009 dime found by me. Other found - one -- 1/1990 UK 5 Pence
Other stats: TEN rolls shorted ten cents each roll, NINE rolls over ten cents each roll -- Can't people count or don't they care??? That's over 37% of the rolls being incorrect in their count! That would be a 63 if it were a test or quiz and that means an F from the grading when I attended school. Unacceptable!!! 
Overage/shortage total: Shorted ten cents 
Enjoy your coin searches, everyone.  |

WHAT A WAY TO END THE MONTH!!!!
I picked up $270 in loose halves from my bank and got a nice handfull of silver PLUS an 1801 large cent!!
I got 2 1954 halves, one 1964 JFK and 17 40%ers and a 1988-S NIFC
The large cent is in fair to AG condition. The only way to read the date is a faint 01 down where the date should be. This is by far the oldest coin I have found. My oldest before this one was a 1912 Barber dime. I skipped right past to ever finding an Indian to finding a Draped Bust cent! As soon as I figure out how to take a good picture, I'll try to post a pic. |
