Country:
Thanks for being patient and persistent enough to post these threads month after month. Much appreciated, even though the site doesn’t seem as active as it was 10 or so years ago.

Yes, thanks for this and the other monthly threads. The copper cents and nickel threads might be the most important/interesting because most of our success is confined to those two denominations.

Does that mean the bag had $870 face in it ($1,000 - $130)?

It means I added $130 to make it a full bag. I got my 130 back before I got the bag.

I wouldn't even bother with dimes. They are the worst coin in U.S. history EXCEPT when you find them on the ground or in penny rolls.

Really, I had much better luck with dimes than quarters. For me, gold coins are the worst. I NEVER find them while roll searching.

Opened two rolls of half dollars today, but no silver. 5 of the 6 banks that I stopped at didn't even have a single half.

Went to one of my local banks yesterday and purchased a roll of halves. FIVE Silver!!!!! All forty percent, but that's perfectly okay.
Was 20 miles out of town today and hit three banks on their main road. 16 halves ($8 face), but no silver.

I picked up 40 CWRs of halves for $400. No silver to be found in any of them. But it was still a good score. There were 23 rolls in the batch that had 25 coins inside instead of 20. I still can’t figure out how the teller didn’t notice this discrepancy in the size of the rolls. I came out ahead with 115 extra coins for $57.50.
