I picked up $67.50 in CRW's while picking up my weekly boxes at one of my banks.
These are my interesting finds.
1 Plastic Penny ( what is the melt value on these) 1 PGA Tour Partners Club Official Member token 2 1998 Canadian Pennies 1 5 Cent Euro ( that thing was stuffed in a roll) 1 1966m Cinco Centavos
List your finds. I am sure everone has a good story to tell.
You don't have to be the BEST you just have to be.......SLICK
Cant say that I have found anything too odd.... got a total of 5 dimes in $20 of pennies...1 free roll! lol oldest wheat ive gotten is a 1916. Not too bad for only sorting 3 boxes I think?!? Just trying to figure out how to dump by 60 lbs of zinc crap!
These are all from bags. Last six months or so worth of finds:
.4 gram, 10k gold necklace. Four silver dimes. Two Mercury, two Roosevelt's. Four Indians. 200+ dimes. Six quarters. Four nickels. Several foreign coins, one as yet unidentified one. A couple of punched pennies. Two plastic pennies. Watch battery. Two paper clips. Two examples of drug paraphernalia(sp?).... Among assorted pieces of unidentified material
Deal
Live free or die. Plain and simple.
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your council or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams
THE UGLY: Lots of road salt contaminated pennies (white colored and nasty). Ashtray pennies that stink like ....well an ashtray. Some smelled so much like weed (the illegal stuff) that they would possibly make you fail a drug test from handling them as they were so sticky with resin tar. I needed to take a shower after sorting this box. Ah the joys of inner city penny hunting!
