I have Monday through Wednesday of this week off. I would have done a road trip, but because I have the kids (they get bored) I just did a few simple stops when out and about in addition to my standard weekly stops.

Picked up a bit of coin....
$1 Canadian dollar coin
$274 in loose half dollars (coin machine bag)
2 - $1000 bags of dimes
2 - $500 bags of dimes
2 - $200 bags of nickels
4 - $100 bags of nickels
18 - $50 bags of pennies

Should keep me busy for this week.....132,549 coins to search.... :P

The pickups were from only 4 banks.

Here is what I completed so far

The Canadian dollar is a 1989.
