Took another vacation day from work to pick up and dump as much coin as I could. To be honest, it was mostly tedious, but there were a few highlights. First, I ordered 10 boxes of halves for next week, which I might turn into a regular thing if I can get a system down. The bank is out of the way, but I can probably justify the drive if I hit the gym right after, which I need to do WAY more than I need to coin roll hunt.
Second, I found my first old-school commemorative half dollar - the 1925 Stone Mountain Memorial - in my weekly one box of halves. It's unnaturally shiny, and I'm not sure what to make of that. Plated? Polished? Either way, that was such a cool coin to see.
Third, I found my third barber dime in one of the coin counter bags I purchased. 1916, the last year of barbers. It was in one of my last handfuls of coin in that bag. I saw the reverse first, so I had that whole "is it a barber or is it a seated?" tease going on. Happy to break my barber drought, as the last one I found was over two years ago.
Add to all that 28 Rosies, 1 silver Canadian dime, and 1 1964 ken. Now, time to wash my hands and go to bed!
