Having a great weekend CRHing. Picked up our 4 boxes on Friday, no work so searched them all, so I could dump on Sat.
BOX #1
SKUNK
BOX #2 (Wife’s)
5 – 90% - 1964
42 – 40% - 1 - 1965, 4 – 1966, 17 – 1967, 12 – 1968, & 8 – 1969
1 – NIFC – 2009D
(Picture bellow)
BOX #3
SKUNK
BOX #4
SKUNK
Although I did find a 1971 that looks like it was struck on a bad planchet, copper showing in sections on the obverse and reverse in streaks? Any Knowledge?
Teller at one pickup branch said she also had $300 in CWR’s for me, I could only get half of them Friday, they were skunks, probably someone’s dump.
Decided to dump all coins on Saturday morning and try to get some dimes to try. Went back to the teller with the halves and got the other $150, know they are probably skunk, but want the teller to know to save them for me, also got $350 CWR dimes, a sealed box of dimes, and a sealed box of nickels to try.
Went to another pickup branch where I knew an old lady had dropped off some halves while I was picking up the day before, I heard her say something about searching, but same idea trying to train tellers to save for me. So got $120 in halves, also got another $250 in CWR dimes and $100 in CWR nickels.
Next stop was to try and get more dime or nickel boxes, they didn’t have any to spare, but one teller had 4 halves in her tray I bought, included a 1967 and a 1969D.
Last stop was to dump some misc. change and try to get some more dimes or nickels with no luck, but one teller had $19.50 in halves – skunks.
For the afternoon we went to the flea market. The coin dealers where all well aware of silver prices and were well above melt on everything. However walked into one building and they had a thing where you pick a plastic egg and could win $20 in gift certificates, had two eggs in bowl and one winner not picked, so I got it. Went to one of the coin dealers and bought a nice 1890 Morgan (ms63) for $42, my cost $22.
So it’s been a good weekend so far, still have a bunch to search. Will post more results later.
