Collection dump! Another Awesome Week!

[maverick]

Hey everyone, whew, I don't even know where to start, these last few weeks have just been incredible! This week was nothing short of that again! So, I picked up my first order of the week (4 boxes 2 bags) all skunky dumps, I go to my next pickup and as soon as I walk in the door my AWESOME vault teller comes running out to say my name 3 times " Boy do we have a surprise for you, a customer turned in a bunch of those half dollars you look through and I think they are all Silver!" So I go to the back with her and she brings out 3 40% in her hand and 3 rolls of halves, I slide out the halves and sure enough 90's and 40's ( each roll did have a couple of clad in them so not solid but.... there were 3 extra 40's she gave me so...) SO I said cool and then asked if they turned in anything else and she said yes, they turned in pennies and nickels, I'll bring them out for you to look through, she brings some out and on the first couple of rolls of Nickels they say Indian Head Dateless, I slide some out, all Buffs! I then look at the pennies she brought out, they are all marked with 1940's dates, so I tell her I'll buy it all ( I believe the total was 135.00?), so I took them home and these are some pics of the haul, we haven't sat down and gone through all of it yet ( the Nicks in the box with brown and Blue wraps seem to be ones they didn't finish sorting and have War, Buffs and some others mixed through the rolls) we'll look through them this weekend, most of the Nickels dates were between the 30's and 50's.

Ok, so now my boxes, with the start of the week being a complete skunk I went to pick up 12 boxes at one of my other branches, searched those and 6 were skunks, the other 6 were loaded! Total for those was 145 40's and 8 90's ( and another 1970!). I picked up my last 4 boxes today and they gave up 11 90's and 19 40's! So my total for this week ( including the CWR's came to, DRUM ROLL.................207 40's! and 26 90s! I just can't believe it, I know it is going to stop soon, if this wasn't it lol, but man these last 4 weeks have been a great ride for sure! Hope everyone is doing good!


Now, in the midst of all my great finds I am deeply saddened though as one of our members here has a family member who is very very sick and I think of this member of our community as a good friend mine, so if you read this man, know that my family's thoughts and prayers are with you my friend! HH to all, Maverick.
