The skunks know..........

............no bounds.

First, $388 in loose halves from the coin counter of an area bank gave up ZERO. First time I've been skunked by a coin counter bag; must have been someones rejects.

Next, BOTH box #s 205 & 206 were all new 94d ! ! Only opened one roll, spot confirmed the others by turning over a dozen or so from each box; and proceeded to return them to the bank. Wasn't even interested in hanging on to a roll or two for EBay purposes. Just wanted to get rid of them.

Oh well, picking up two more boxes tomorrow, let's keep our fingers crossed.

I feel your pain - that is what I call a false start!

I found six rolls of 1994D about two months ago and sold them for $25 a roll. I have seen them sold on ebay between $20 and $30 a roll. The book lists them as worth $26.00 a roll in BU. Hope I didn't ruin your day.

Darn Thurm!!! 207 & 208 tomorrow have to produce something.....it's time for the ride to go north....fingers crossed for ya.......let us know.

 

[Sheldius]

Hope you had luck today.

Oldred, why would 1994D sell for over face? Just curious because I don't check those for errors. Am I missing something?

HH.

the only reason why is that someone who thought halves were "rare" bought them and stored them away.

They have no errors that I know of, but they sell on ebay all the time between 20 and 30 dollars. I sold my rolls to a coin collector in our club. The 1994D lists at $26 per roll in BU condition. Most people don't try and sell them, but If I know they are selling for that amount on ebay on a regular basis, then I'm going to try and sell them for a nice profit. I'm no expert on coins, but selling them worked for me.

# 207 ..........................skunk.

Couldn't bear to open #208 yet. Will do tonight.

You can't win if you don't play..............right?

 

[Old Dog]

A lot of colectors build a set out of unopened rolls.
or as close to a basic set as possible.

Thus the demand for unopened rolls

Box # 209 AND #210................both skunks . That's six skunk boxes of halves in a row. Ouch !
