box of pennies and some halves

[stu123]

Hunted like 5 banks, 3 of which I'd never tried before. Being a thursday, the smaller banks had no customers at the time.
The big bank wasn't so friendly. I spied they had a box of pennies on the counter and they sold it to me "this one time only". I also went to the coin shop and got some cardboard flips so I could seal up the finds right away.

Cabins 17
Formatives 5
canadian 6
53 X2 + 53s x1 - one was in pretty good shape
38 x1
56 X1
58 x1 + 58d x1
46 x1
51 d x1
59d x4
60's X 52 - two of which were 62 with some shine still on them.
in the havles - a 1971 that looks like there was debris that got between it an the die when it was struck.

Stu don't go crazy with the flips this could become an expensive hobby for you. Try the tubes for the common stuff.

Hi Mr. Stu,

You should also get a Redbook. It's a good guide for coin values and grades, and what to look for. It's called A Guide Book of United States Coins by R.S. Yeoman. I've got one from 1980 that I got from my father. I think it's time for me to update. I've been needing to get a new one for a while now, but I can't seem to find the time. I'm either at banks or searching rolls.

Kindest regards,
Kantuck
