No boxes, but 8 rolls of nickels yields silver

[Sheldius]

Head teller was away on training, so my 2 boxes weren't ordered. I picked up a range of change from BOA ($100) just to check it out and maybe get my fix.

$30 Quarters - nothing except the new state quarter :P

$50 Dimes - nothing, had 3 rolls that were all 1965 - 1975. I had hopes.

$4 Pennies - nothing, but gave up about 15 coppers every roll.

$16 Nickels - A few worn pre-1960's and one 1945 P. Yeah, no stinky today. Also my first!

I'm visiting my brother in law in Douglasville tomorrow to celebrate his son's 3 birthday. Maybe I'll be able to find some halves along the way.

I generally check the Douglasville area as well.
I haven't been very successful. I hope your luck is better.
I was mainly around the Harbor Place Mall area. That was 2-3
weeks ago. Good luck.

Cool finds. I love pix of war nix. Quarters are always skunky, but at least you tried. Good luck in Douglasville.

Thanks. My wife had told me the party started at 1pm, but right before we were going to leave we found out it wasn't until 5pm, so no CRH trip. Just a nice birthday. I did get some work done, so I have less today. Might have gotten my BIL interested in Metal Detecting. He had asked me to bring it with and we found two pennies in his new (1999) house yard.

Douglasville wasn't hit, so I wish you luck on your next trip through.

Thanks. Sadly it didn't work out (wife tricked me, LOL). Hopefully more silver is building up where ever I get to next.

Thanks. It took forever for the new teller to figure out how to do the transaction. I cashed my check and said I wanted a hundred in change.

She fiddle around awhile and said how do you want the change. I said pennies, nickels, dimes. Should have seen her eyes . You are serious? That started about 15 minutes of roll fussing and counting. Didn't really want quarters, but wasn't going to ask since it took so long.
