Got my first boxes, pretty good finds!

[Squatch2401]

I got my first few boxes on Friday, but my half box was not there. I found a bank that had some halves and I bought all that they had (10 rolls).



I went through my nickel box first and this is what I found...



Just a bunch of pre 1960 nickels and...




two 1945 war nickels and one 1942 war nickel. (Edit: Found out the 1942 is not a War Nickel.)

Next I went through the 10 rolls of halves....




1950 Ben, 1965 Ken, and a 1967 Ken.

Dimes were next, I wasn't expecting much but I was pleasantly surprised...




1963 and 1964.

Now time for the cents, found some nice wheaties...




2x1944, 1948, 1949, 1954, 1957, 1958

Also found a bunch of 2009 cents, not certain if these are worth keeping...




Also found a weird foreign cent that I still need to do some research on...



and to finish this post off, I pulled out the copper...

You should go back and get more halves- 3 out 10rolls is good

Sorry to rain on your parade just a little, but the 1942 nickel isn't a war nickel. 1942 Philadelphia nickels were made in both regular and war nickel compositions, and the war nickels will always have the large mintmark over Monticello.
Still some yery nice finds that I would be very happy with myself

Oh I did not know that, thanks omga747! Yeah I am still learning what is what in the CRHing game.

Iamrussell, that was everything that they had. I will keep checking back at that bank anyway.

Id sure say you did real well in all the denominations. And as was already stated, unfortunately the '42 nic you found isn't silver but its still a little better date (even better if its a '42D) and finding 2 war nics in one box is still quite good. And the '50D half is a harder date to find too. I only recently found my first pre - '51 Ben ('49) from CRHing.

H$H!

Nice mix of silvers! Good photos too!

Thanks Yinzi, now I need to get some better pictures of the foreign coin.

Thanks Yinzi, now I need to get some better pictures of the foreign coin.

The foreign coin is from panama. Nice start and hope the box of halves turns out well for you!
