May was a busy month for me and with finals fast approaching I don't expect June will be any more laid back. Nonetheless I still managed to search 1 box of dimes and I believe 6 boxes of pennies in May.
For dimes I found 5 80%ers, 3 50%ers and 1 90% silver american, surprisingly these all came from the one box. In the pennies I found 585 George VI (10 solid rolls found), 45 wheats, 9 George V (8 from the same box) dates being 1922,1927,1928,1929,1932x2,1934,1935,1936, and the oldest coin I have pulled from circulation a 1902 indian head cent. It's the first indian cent I have found and it took me quite a lot of searching to find it.
I must have found someones dumped collection because on top of the rolls of George VI I found many UNC mint rolls from the 1980s, 90s and early 2000s as well I found several rolls of UNC pennies from the various years in the 1960s. I also made some new friends at a new bank and there I acquired a nice assortment of old paper money and I picked up some 50 cent pieces and nickel dollars they had. I got 21 nickel dollars, 11 50 cent pieces, 7 clad kennedy halves and 3 Ikes.

I will post pictures of my finds in the forceable future.

Nickel, cause otherwise the pic would be here like a hot potato! :laughing7:

For such volume, this is just unbelievable. It feels so good when you find a dumped collection for face value. Congrats on IH, the milestone is passed. I would love to see the pictures, especially of the IH and KGV pennies.
