Nickel boxes are keeping me sane - barely. Overall frustrating week but at least I'm finding *something*. March has been nicer to me thankfully.

How's your buff album coming along?

 

[ShinyPackRat]

Looks like I am missing 15 but of course most of those aren't from coin roll hunting. I buy lots of things when I can get them far under value. Too much trouble to try to keep 'separate collections'.. I don't have enough room for everything even combined.
Only missing 5 V nickels too, only ever found one CRHing. Partial sets of mercs and barber dimes too, but have never found any of either CRHing.

missing: 1913 PDS, 1914D, 1915S, 1916S, 1917D, 1918DS, 1919S, 1921S, 1924D, 1926S, 1931S, 1938D. I don't expect I'll fill any of those slots via CRH anytime soon.

March 1 - March 7 Coin Hunting Results

The week started out looking pretty weak with the dime box, but quickly returned to a nice pace with some nice finds. I always love to find a proof and get some normal penny boxes for once.

And now the bad news: partway through the following week (march 8 - march 14) the car bought the farm. Between that and almost my entire family losing their jobs over this whole virus thing, coin roll hunting looks like it will be on a semi-indefinite pause. Everything here went from 'we are completely fine' to 'well ****' shockingly quickly; in the near future we'll be more worried about food than fixing the car, cant hunt without the car. So after posting a few more penny boxes that I got before things went south, you all might not see much of me for a while (fingers crossed it doesn't go that way).

Stay safe everybody && happy hunting to all. Your posts of shiny finds will help keep me sane

Sounds like this has been a rough week for you and your family. Take your time, shiny...the coins will be waiting for you when you get back.

First time I've seen someone pull an 'S' business strike ATB quarter in the wild. Also, that abe smokin' a stogie is pretty funny.

First time I've seen someone pull an 'S' business strike ATB quarter in the wild.

I think that might be my sixth or seventh S circulation strike, actually. I was actually starting to think they were kind of common..
Yea, my wife keeps telling me the coins aren't going anywhere too. Still though, makes me grumble. We'll survive though, even if it ends up meaning selling a bunch of coins off. We're in a better position than some people I know.
I also may have giggled at the Lincoln. Definitely a new one to me. The counterstrike collection grows!

Sorry to hear you're back to leaving in April. Was looking forward to watching you get those last two roosies.

March 8 - March 14 Coin Hunting Results

Actually got the car fixed this week (22nd--28th), although it is still hard to get coin with most of my local banks closed. Can still get a few here or there but expect lower volume for "a while". Still, nice to have that car problem out of the way, I missed getting groceries and stuff. Only ended up being two weeks coinless. Now just have to make sure I can eat until next paycheck and we're all good.

I had extremely high hopes for the first nickel box this week, with a silver and buffalo ender. Ending up still being a good box, but nothing record-shattering unfortunately. I would have really enjoyed a dozen buffaloes in a box or something. Oh well, treasure's still treasure; bit by bit. A couple respectable earlier-date Wheaties and Canadians among the pennies too.
