Went out on the 'Road Trip' today.
Bank 1 didnt have a whole lot handy, some CWR Nickels, Dimes and Quarters, a box of dimes and a box of quarters. The CWR's didnt produce. The Quarters I thought would produce when I came across one roll but it failed me. I ended up with a 1975 Canadian Quarter and a baseball token of some sort.
Next came the Dimes from Bank 1. I made it through the first 4 layers from Brinks without anything of interest. Second to last roll came this pretty sight. I was fully expecting a Canadian coin with my luck but instead came my first Silver Proof, 1992 S. Not in the greatest of conditions but I will take it.
I do a dump and hit up bank #2, Grab a box of Quarters, Dimes and Nickels. Search the Quarters and find nothing, Search the dimes and find a 1949 Rosie if I recall correctly. I go do a dump and the coin counter comes up with $745.11. I give the teller a look of disgust and she asks if the count is off and I say yes it is, its off by $4.90 and where did the penny come from? She double checked the machine and says that is the count it gave her. I think Brinks funked me but the teller holds the reject foreign coins for me, she hands me a 1985 Canadian Quarter, 1964 Canadian Penny and a 1968 Canadian Quarter so I got free silver from the bank I doesnt match the $5 I lost bit it recoups some and I am sure in the long run it will pay out for me. She was real apologetic but I assured her it was most likely a shorted box and not her fault.
Went to bank 3 to get dimes, quarters and nickels but since I am not a member they would only give me a box of nickels. Almost finished with box #1 and no Wars of Buffalo.
On a side note. I have 3 banks ordering me halves up there. I will get 2 boxes each from 2 of them on Wednesday ( total of 8 for that week ) and the following week I will have all 3 getting me 2 boxes each. Great thing is, 2 of the branches are getting from the same supply that magic box of mine came from so hopefully it pays off. Another branch is String Boxes so hopefully they pay off as well.
In the long run, $6 in gas and a $5 roll of dimes vanishing for less than a quarter ounce of silver but the potential of much much more.
Ill add more later if anything good comes out of this other box of nickels. I really want more war nickels.
