Nice Buffalo, and I would be happy with the 1913 Wheat.

I'm new to this and was wondering why some of his coin posts are in red? Can anyone fill me in on this? Sorry for being uneducated on this.

Everytime I come across a new variety for the year I mark it in red.

Gman,

I've been trying other denominations (cents, nickels) from time to time, but just don't get the results you do (not even close).

Than again, you can't win if you don't play.

Thanks for sharing and kudos.

I'd have to say that you had a pretty rough week. Congrats on the buff but over all. Yikes. A lotta foreign money in those bags. Good luck next time.

Huh?

These are fairly typical numbers for the denominations...

Would have expected a war nickel in $200 of nickels, but the buffalo makes up for that and the pennies and dimes were slightly above my averages. The quarters.....well those are always a shot in the dark.

I wouldn't call this a high number of foreign coins in the bags...pretty typical actually.

not a bad week....just a slow week....granted one of my pick up banks had coin machine problems and although they said they had some bags, they had to rerun them because the machine was inaccurate so that also contributed.

I wasn't meaning to be mean or anything. It just seemed like a lot of foreign because i only hunt boxes normally. When i do have the chance to hunt bags i do get bummed when those coins pop up in there. Just means more I have to come up with when I go to get more. Congrats on the finds. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

It probably costs me slightly more in the long run, but the foreign coins keep it interesting and since most of them cost me....a penny or nickel....not really too worried about it... Besides they add that element of ...you never know what you're going to find.
