A Ramblin' Wreck (CamK13's CRH Log)

Well, I'm back.

After hanging around this forum for the last month, I've decided to become active again.

I have been CRHing since I last was on here but haven't had time to log finds or post. So...here's a synopsis of everything since Jan 1 this year:

$1 Silver Certificate , $2 Fed Res. Note : Face



21 - 40% Kennedy's : Face



4 WL , 10 Franklin , 12 90% Kennedy : Face



3 Mercs , 16 Roosies : Face



1923 Peace Dollar , 1991 SE , 1993 SE : $47.50 Total



1966 1 Krona (7g ; 40%) : Foreign Bucket





German Gold Token (3.9g , 10k) : Foreign Bucket





So, just to explain the foreign bucket thing....I went to a yard sale where the gentleman was selling foreign coins 5/$1. It filled up a wine chilling bucket (~13 lbs) and was probably a couple thousand coins/tokens/etc. So I offered him $40 for the lot and he gladly accepted since he hadn't had much interest that morning. So the above 2 coins were found in that bucket, along with tons of large foreign pennies, ~30-40 coins pre-1900 (I think a Napoleon from 1857 is the oldest), and a couple of tokens made from the metal harvested from the U.S. Constellation (1st ship of the U.S. Navy) that are going for ~$15 each on eBay. Overall I'm very pleased with the purchase since it was my first gold!

Below is the best CWR I have opened this year (Just shy of a complete 90% roll) :



As far as MWR goes it's all been skunked.

1 box dimes - Skunk
2 boxes halves - Skunk

I do have a bank that is ordering me 2 boxes of halves twice a week now which is nice. So hopefully I'll be able to get into some volume in the next couple months.

Regardless, it's good to be back and happy hunting!

it's too bad someone wrote on that $2 bill

 

[CamK13]

This weeks totals:

$200 CWR Dimes - Skunk
$240 CWR Halves - 2 - 90% ; 2 - 40% ; 4 - Clad Proofs





My bank forgot to order halves for me this week so that was a bust. They ordered for next Friday delivery while I was standing there so that'll hopefully boost these numbers. Otherwise, a pretty decent week.

That almost complete 90% roll is awesome. Did you purchase any of the U.S. silver stuff? If not, what kind of volume have you been doing? Nice work for the first third of the year, hopefully the rest of the year will be as kind to you.
