I rolled out of bed this morning at about 4:50 am. Went to work until about 8:30,(If anyone is interested I drive the mosquito spray truck for my hometown, West Nile is a huge problem here). After I got off I decided to go do some CRHing the rest of the day! I stopped at my local credit union and asked for 1000$ worth of dimes. The teller gave me this crazy look and said they just shipped 1000$ worth of dimes out to the fed earlier that week and only had 300 dollars worth. So I bought all of them and proceeded to sit out in my truck and look through them. I was getting frustrated simply because half way through the rolls I hadn't found anything. Well my luck started turning. Out popped a 55 Rosie, then a 62, then a 60, then a 64..Then rest was skunks. I was esctatic to find so many silver dimes in so little though. I decided to go dump what I had and try another bank. I bought 2 strings 250$ boxes and searched both of them until I thought I was done. SKUNK. I was very sad BUTTT!! After I rerolled all them and put them back in the box I noticed I was missing a roll so I searched everywhere for it and finnally found it rolled under the seat. I tore it open and wouldn't you know, a 1964 Rosie fell into my lap. It is funny how the last roll out of 500 dollars produced a single silver. I believe it will become my new good luck charm! :icon_thumright: The teller at the second bank had 5 half dollars in her tray as well. One of them just so happened to be a 1968 D. ;D I had a very good day. HH all!
