Got them all! What every father want to hear his son say

[Chief]

Way to go! Makes me want to go out and get the pre-65 dime book and try to fill it. Bust of luck!

[Treetop]

All you guys make me sooooo jealous I cant really get boxes of coin. such is life though... I remember as a kid I found mercuries rather often.. If only I had known! I actually saved them for awhile, just because they were different. with a pile of bi centennial quarters. I probably bought candy or baseball cards with them.

I am fifty and in 1977 in had complete Dansco set of Lincoln's with the 1922 plain,1909-S VDB the works. I sold them for a 1967 GTO with a bad title so no coins and no car. So it would be nice to turn the clock back. My son Franklin just needs the 1922 plain and the 1909-S VDB. We have counterfeit ones from EBAY filling the holes for now.

We now have three banks that fill there bags to $500 and said they will call us when full and found the Loomas picks up on Tuesday so I will start checking on Mondays if they have a full bag.

[henrysmedford]

The bank called today and had a $500 bag off the counter for us. And we got 33 silvers today. I will update are list.

[tractorman]

Nice score!! That will surely fill some holes!!

[twentybux]

WOW! That is a heck of a haul out of $500. Congrats!

[RichardPenny43]

Awesome! I need to score a dime bag...er um...I mean a bag of dimes

[Engineer]

WOW! That is a heck of a haul out of $500. Congrats!

+1

[My2Cents]

And I thought my recent score of 10 silver dimes from 2 boxes was good..... great job!

[henrysmedford]

Out of 33 found we get to cross nine off the list.

[db23]

Sweet score!

[henrysmedford]

Got a 1956 today out of $500 bag and South Africa cent and a Barbados dime.

[uthminsta]

Any more luck on the Mercs? Any Barbers yet?

[henrysmedford]

Mad a trade with tractorman on some Canadian cents and he sent some dimes.

[uthminsta]

Remember, the birthday package...

[henrysmedford]

Remember, the birthday package...

I talked to the owner of the LCS and he said he would trade one for one if Franklin got more than one of the same date/mint to help fill his folder. Also looks like we will be starting a Mercury folder and he will also trade to help fill that folder.

[uthminsta]

that's a great deal. you might also want to check out a Barber folder.

[Robarons]

Barber Coinage (and anything before that for that matter) in terms of whitman books are hard to find. They have seemed to stop making those sometime ago, maybe in the past collecting seated and barber coinage was a cheap past time but its not now.

If you find any keep a death grab on them.

[uthminsta]

Good point. Probably stapling each one into a cardboard 2x2 would be a better choice there... that's the way I did it when I collected Barbers. But if I recall correctly, they were part of one of the early KSA's? I sold them all except for the ones my grandpa gave me.

[aloneibreak]

ive seen lots of barber coins with odd reverse toning taken from those old whitman barber folders

must be a reaction to the glue or even the paper itself

[henrysmedford]

We got 18 more out of a $500 bag. And three hole fillers.

[CanadianCopper]

Amazing Henry! Happy to see this new venture is working out for you and your sons

[henrysmedford]

Franklin just found a 46-S in a CWR. Also the owner of the LCS told Franklin that the 55 are hard to find so he traded Franklin one for one on some others that Franklin found for the 55s. Also he said that it has been over 35 years that the last time he saw someone filling a dime folder from the wild.

[henrysmedford]

New rule push coins tightly into folder just found that the 1953-S is on the run.
