Worth the wait, and the fee

Twitch · May 8, 2014

I posted a couple of months ago about a branch that would sell me the bag off the counter once it was full. Well I couldn't wait any longer so today I went in and finished the bag off and paid about ~$14 coin counter fees to get the bag. The bag had about $750 in it. Found 27 '65-69's, 1 '70-D (the 6 year about did a backflip when he found it), 1 '64, 1 '50-D, 1 '42-D and an '18. Also found 22 NIFC's (including an '87-P), 3 foreign and 3 tokens. Was $4.50 short in halves but $5.75 heavy in other change.

Combined with the box from last week my last $1,250 has yielded...

36 40%ers
1 '70-D
1 '76-S
2 '64's
3 Franklins
3 Walkers
1 Commemorative
4 Proofs
3 foreigns
33 NIFC's

at this rate CRH'ing is a lot of fun. Hopefully tomorrow's boxes are productive.

Definitely worth the fees you paid (still too bad you had to pay them but I thinknid pay a fee every once in a while to get a bag)
Congrats

I bet that was a lot of fun to search and I'd say that was worth it too, great bag score! That's good u could enjoy searching it with younger members of the family too. I found another clad '76S today myself but Im still looking for my first '70D. And I found a 1918 Walker too in a box a couple of years ago which is my oldest Walker find.

H$H!

Nice finds!

Looks like things are looking up for you!

Congrats on the old 90%ers and the 70-D!

A well-spent ~$14 Twitch. :icon_thumright:

I've been lucky. So far every time I've topped off a bag at a bank that charges coin counter fees, I haven't been charged anything.

That is great... well done, you deserve that bag! I've done one bag of halves ever, it was $2 short on the halves but contained $5.38 in other US Change and a handful of free foreign coinage... and of course, some silver.
