This week's search didn't produce as many keepers but every bit adds to the collection. This week's report:

1/2- Spent most of the morning returning coin and picked up a brinks nickel box(no buffalo or war)(1999 Bermuda 5 cents)

1/3-Purchased $90 in customer rolled halves($80 rolled,$10 loose, all skunk)
- Went back to the bank that had the rolls loaded with wheats to see if they had any more from that box. She still had a full tray which i purchased. Results of those 20 rolls were 134 more wheatbacks. Included was a 1910,1917-d or s,1919,1919-s,and 1925. There were nine from the 1930s,fifty-nine from the 1940s,and sixty-one from the 1950s. From 40 rolls there was a total of 278 wheatbacks. There were also 5 common Canadians in the mix.
-$10 in cents(garda) from another branch(5 common wheats and 5 common Canadian). Also inquired about buying the half dollar bag off the machine and left my #. The teller said the manager would call me back the next day, she never did. I'll make a stop back there and ask her in person.
