A few good bags

waseeker · May 23, 2008

Well May was a good month for silver. As I mentioned sometime ago, my bank opened a branch close to me. It has a new type coin counter with a bin instead of individual bags. Since I can't buy coin there, it has become my dump bank. I've added Quarter & Dime bags to my purchases. From 5 bags of quarters, 3 bags of dimes and 1 bag of nickels I found:

8 Wash quarters 1951-S; 1954-S; 1958D' 1962D - 2; 1964D - 3;
17 Roosevelt Dimes: 1952S;1954D;1957D;1958D;1959D; 1961D-2;1962D; 1963D; 1964-2; 1964D-6;
Nickels 1944P
Canadian 1960 Dime.

The .925 ring was found with the MD yesterday in a local park.

Wow, that's one impressive haul of dimes & quarters considering the amount searched wasn't too great! Way to go.

Nice quarter score!
I gave up after searching 12 bags with no silver quarters - $2k is a lot of money to tie up for each skunk quarter bag.
Congrats!!!

You must have a different bank than I do. My quarter bags are 1k. Fortunately with the dump bank in town, I can make my rounds in the morning, and if I have any quarter or dime bags to go through I can usually get through them the same day and back to the dump bank.
