Having seen Sleepy Holow and Immy update their threads for new finds (and skunks) as time goes on, I thought I would do the same. Seems to be easier than to start a new thread to report finds or skunks.
Yesterday, I got this solid roll of wheats when I bought $3 in cents from a bank (among dimes and nickels, which were a complete skunk). It was a nice roll that included a 1943D steel, and a AU/BU 1956. Other coins of note were a 1910,1918,1920 and 1925. Rest were common date wheats. I didn't realize until after I had opened the roll that it actually had wheat cents written on it (and crossed out).
At another bank got $5 in loose halves in addition to cents, nickels, and dimes. While the cents, nickels, and dimes were a skunk, the halves were a big winner: $4.50 of the $5 were silver: 1962, 1964, 1967 (x2), 1968D (x3), and 1969D (x2). The other was 1972 clad
Since Jan 2 through yesterday, found these coins:
Halves: 1964(x2), 1967
2 war nickels
4 buffalo nickels: 1936, 1937, 1928 (can barely make out the 2 and the 8), and a dateless that is well worn
16 silver dimes
YTD Searched:
$109.50 in cents - before the solid roll of wheat, was getting about 1 wheat per $2.60, which is low relative to what I have seen in the past. It definitely seems that someone (or multiple people) have been CRH cents around here.
$386 in nickels - these have been good this year
$2,415 in dimes - 0.66% silver hit rate
$140 in quarters - found nothing and didn't expect to.
$68 in halves, of which $38 were loose from tellers. Rolled halves have been few and far between this year so far. Also, went into a bank today near work and when I asked if they had any halves, the teller said that they go quick when they get them. Halves silver hit rate is 9.56% of the $68 searched.
Thank you for reading
Good luck to all and HH
