Hey Guys! I have been a frequent visitor to T-Net for sometime now and I figured with my recent finds I might as well come out of hiding and share them with you guys. This past saturday I was doing a box of pennies and wasn't very satisfied with my results as I only had 5 wheaties about 2/3 of the way through the box, but then as I open another roll out pops a 1907 Indian penny! I nearly jumped out of my chair! its a little beat up but its a spectacular find anyways! Ended up with 10 wheaties and the IH. Then on Monday I moved to nickels, and the result of that box was pretty good, with 33 pre-1960s, including a '43S and P nickel. After getting these 2 silver guys I decided to try my luck with halfs. On Tuesday I went into a TD Bank that I just learned was very close to my house. I went to the counter and asked the teller if she had any halfs. She goes "I've got $18.50 worth" and naturally i took them all. I then went across the street to a Chase bank and asked for halves and they had $2.50 worth. The next few banks had none. I was satisfied, however, ending up with 5 90% Kennedys and 10 40%s. Sorry i cant post any pictures right now as my camera broke. Anyways thanks for reading and look forward to the bright future here on T-Net :icon_sunny:
