5 bags in a day

[Rosco53]

Well, got bored yesterday and set a new personal record. 5 cent bags searched in one day. Not much to show for it, couple 1918 wheats and these:

2009 impaired Proof:


A different type of JFK:


And whatever this is... Guessing a crown, thought turtle at first.


Happy hunting everyone!

5 bags and no wheats.......

I admire your perseverance my friend!

Yikes man. That’s a rough 5 bags

 

[Rosco53]

No, sorry to mislead, I got 65 wheats outta them, but nothing really post-worthy. 2 from 1918. Got a decent amount of canadian, even a George VI, but those 3 where the "highlights"...

Five bags, do you date check each one?

Nope, gave that up about a year ago. I just line 'em up in my palm and look at the coin. If I see the date and its not 58 or older toss it, or if I see the memorial or shield toss it. Only keeping 58 and older for US, any foreigns, or weird ones (Proofs, Cuds, Clips, counter-punched, etc). I can rifle through a bag in about 1:30 now.

5 bags of pennies! Your patience is remarkable and I know its real because I saw you hunting Miocene shark teeth for hours in the heat. My personal record for CRH is 3 boxes of halves in one night. If you get snowed-in this winter, I suspect you'll be going through pennies!

Its relaxing, and beats a day at work any day! Went through my last snapple bottle of Chesapeake sand too, lotta little teeth in them, was neat to pick through with my mother. Haven't had a chance to give my friend the ones for his children yet, seeded them with a few that the locals were kind enough to pass to me. *May* be already planning another trip for sharks teeth. Also may have considered bombing out during a 3 day weekend, but I choose life instead :-p.
