I haven't done much this year. Same as you. I am tempted to get some, but am so busy, just haven't got around to it.

Been busy myself. But, it's easier for me to do boxes than it is to make rounds hoping for CWR or tray finds. I'll post pics if I get anything outta boxes.

I just recently started ordering full boxes (3 so far), and have had decent results so far, with 3 90%s, 9 40%s, a reasonable looking 2000S proof, 87P&D(!!!) which are my first of both, and the D looks like it’s still unc, 10 or so 2002+ nifc’s, and more than half of another au+ buisness strike circulation set in $1500 worth.

I did 2 boxes a couple week ago, did well, about 6 40% plus two enders 40% have those two rolls on display, can't bring myself to open them.

Have two more boxes coming Thursday. Want to try bags of halves but the only bank that will sell them is locked down by another CRHer. Did get a dime bag last Friday, only found 2 90% a Rosie and a Merc but not giving up yet.

Actually did much better on a dime box, 30 silver

I've had pretty dang good success with bank hopping and purchasing whatever they will sell me (loose, bank-wrapped rolls, machine-wrapped rolls, full boxes of rolls, and bags off the coin counter). I do miss the anticipation of picking up weekly half dollar orders though, and it would probably be smart of me to start dabbling in that game again so I get the best of all worlds. Thanks for the reminder, and good luck!
