Busy week, but managed some silver in my spare time

[Numismaniac]

All, moved to Louisiana this week for work (had to leave the family back in Missouri for school etc....). Will only be here for about 8 months, but on my trips here in the past the silver was flowing pretty well. Anyways, did a box of nickels before I left and scored one war nic and a 1923 Buffalo, did a bag of dimes ($500) and scored 4 silver roosies including a 1950S which is a pretty tough date. Got down here on Friday and already found a dump bank and several supply banks. People working in the banks are friendly down here just like Missouri, so that's nice -- one head teller told me she would order whatever I wanted, and she had two boxes of halves in the vault right now I got $250 just for a quick test and found a 1964 and a 1974D Doubled Die. Meanwhile my daughter back in MO will continue to hunt nickels while I'm gone to build her collection. She's really getting into CRH in a big way. Too bad she's only 14 and has to get Mom or her big sister to drive her to the bank....

Well, once I get my scanner set up down here I'll post some pics of my finds. Oh, almost forgot. There are two coin shops down here, and I picked up a 1964 Proof Kennedy for melt, and it's the accented hair variety! Pretty exciting to cherry pick a dealer like that once in a while. Also scored a 1937D Merc in XF/AU from another shop for melt.

HSH to all, some pretty big finds on here lately!

Glad you are getting to settle in. Hope you find lots of silver in LA. Food is great, too!
