[cwgii]

110.00 cwr halves and 10. loose. not a thing. but did make the teller happy to get them out of her vault.

$110 CWR halves - skunk

$160 loose Ikes - skunk i did find several that seemed to be some of the varieties of Ikes, but most of those varieties seem to need to be MS-65 or higher to get past a few dollars in value. i'm not sure hanging on to them would have been worth the hassle of verifying the variety and finding a buyer.

Today I found over 1.5 troy pound of silver, my biggest single day yet. Most of that came from one bank visit. I bought 11 rolls of halves and 70 large dollars that another customer had deposited just a few minutes before I came in. The 70 large dollars included a Peace dollar. Three of the 11 rolls of halves were solid 40% silver and the other eight rolls each had several 40%ers as well. 109 of the 220 halves were 40% silver. About 20 minutes after I left that branch it occurred to me that it might have been a good idea to ask if that customer had brought in any quarters, dimes, or other coins. I called and asked. He hadn't brought in anything else.

Way to go on the silver dollar! You've been posting a lot of skunks from the CuNi clad Ikes and finally a nice piece of silver shows up.

All those 40% halves are a great pick-up too.

I got my first bag from a new bank's lobby counter. They have mixed bags. They told me it fills to 3500 coins and then they switch it out. This bag had $391.26 in it. The great news is that it looks like this machine does not reject silver, so this could be a great source! It took a lot of time and persistence in order to cultivate this source.

Found:
1944 Merc
1946 Rosie
1945P Jefferson
1928 Buffalo
1962 Washington
20+ common wheats

I was surprised to find the quarter! and delighted.

This is a tough one for me. I have no idea, and perhaps you don't either, what coins were in the bag; how many pennies, nickels, dimes, or halves. It's sort of like finding some SILVER in a jar, but not counting what else is in the jar. So, feel free to post these finds, but I can't put them into the stats. Sorry...

$641.50 coin counter mixed bag
-1939S Jefferson in AU condition. Nice bingo upgrade.

Sorry, I can't count the mixed bag finds.
