4 Boxes Dimes, 1 awesome Nickel Box!! w/pics

[jjaddict]

Last weeks box of dimes was a skunk, my first dime skunk. Picked up another box at a random bank yesterday and scored 4 silvers, 2-64 1-63 1-54. The bank said they had $2000 in dimes, so I went back today and picked up another 2 boxes of dimes and one of nickels. First dime box was a skunk, second box scored one silver '54.

Then I started into one awesome nickel box. It was full of oldies, almost 2 pre 60's in every roll. Half way through I scored my first S mintmark War nickel, a '43. Then my two year old decided to join the hunt, his second roll, scores a '45D War Nick, sweeeet!! Next roll he opens...a freakin Buffalo nickel, awesome. The next roll he opens...and I still can't believe his luck...a 50 D!!! In really nice shape too. He stopped there, but I managed an awesome 38 D, in AU condition after that. So much fun opening this box. Over 70 pre-60's total. I think I got a little piece of a collection dump. Might have to go back tomorrow for some more nicks.
