Great dime Boxes!!!!! I'm filtering through the 2014's right now. My pickup banks for dimes & nickels recently switched from Dunbar to Garda (nf string boxes)... Cwr until they clear up!

I've been getting a lot of solid 2014P dime boxes. I used to search through them, but now I just take them to the next branch and ask if I can exchange them for a box that isn't completely new.

Picked up two boxes of halves yesterday, pulled a 90%er from each:

1964
1954D Ben

Hey MM, I'm still around lurking, nice to see you're still adding to the pile! HH, Maverick.

 

[TheMastermind]

Thanks, Mav! How's it going?

Right now I'm averaging just under 10 ozt/month. My goal this year is, again, 100 ozt total. Last year I was a few ounces short. Hopefully I can keep this average going, if so I should be able to hit my goal this year.

I'm still hunting, 26 boxes a week now, I am ahead of last yrs numbers so far ( 889 40% and 141 90%) hoping to hit 3500 40's this yr and 700 90's, it is going to be a hard goal to attain though... Father inlaw is till battling cancer (going through chemo still) and we are battling the usual life problems, kids, work, health and so on, they still can't figure out what is going on with my wifes legs, have had her on Gabapentan ( spelling?) for months so can walk and work, she is going for and MRI of her head now because the DR. wants to rule out any kinda tumors or such that may be causing the problem. So I still try and log on in between everything to see how everyone is doing ( lots and lots of new members now, not too many of the old crowd that I see anymore) nice to see you, and I'll keep tabs with you, good luck this year!! HH, Maverick.

 

[TheMastermind]

Wow, sorry to hear that you are still going through so much stress. It's tough, I'm sure. Keep your head up!

Glad to hear you're still hunting though. Those are some killer numbers for being so early in the year still!

 

[BuffaloBoy]

Sorry to hear about everything going on Mav Hopefully things get better soon!
