Push, Honey, Push: My Last Big CRH Month Until Baby Is Born

[Styfflin]

With my little son less than 20 days away from being born, I knew I had to kick up the CRH volume in the first three weeks of June...while I still could. I have 22 boxes of halves ordered for this week, and I'll be looking to increase next week, in addition to picking up whatever else I can scrounge up and/or afford. I'll keep you guys filled in on what I find along the way:

Monday June 3:
$500 dime bag - 2 silver roosies (1953D, 1964D), 1 mercury (1944)
$1000 quarter bag - 1 silver Washington (1948)
2 $100 nickel bags - 2 war nickels (1943P, 1943S)

Tuesday June 4:
8 half dollar boxes - 13 40% Kens (2 1966, 5 1967, 4 1968D, 2 1969D), 1 90% ken (1964), 2 bens (1953D - my first bender, 1963D), 1 walker (1939 - my first walker)

Wow nice!! I missed that huge score too!

Doh! I knew I should have made a new thread for that day's finds, but I didn't want to bail on my mini-log.

My greatest treasure. Jakob Andreas was born today - five days early - on what was supposed to be my pickup day. Still need to figure out what to do about that...

Hey Styfflin, sorry I'm late checkin in, BIG CONGRATS ON THE BABY! Glad everything went well and safe your wife and the baby! Now be ready for the every 2 hour feedings and sleep depervation you are about to encounter, lol. Your finds aren't bad, I've gone through 15 boxes I don't know how many times now and found nothing. Well, keep us informed and enjoy you new child! One more thing, take lots and lots of pics and video, it is going to go by soooo fast it will make your head spin, trust me, I ( and many others on here) know first hand! HH, Maverick.

Hey Styfflin, congrats on your child!!!

 

[Styfflin]

Thanks guys. It'll be one week Tuesday, and I'm already feeling the time fly. It sucks I have to go back to work tomorrow. In the meantime, I was able to do all of my dumps today and pick up two bags of quarters and one bag of dimes. I'll post results tonight!
