2014 recovery totals: CardsNCoins

Postby CardsNCoins » Wed Dec 31, 2014 8:20 pm

Happy New Year to everyone.

Work was very busy this year, so coin roll hunting took more of a backseat than in years past.

In 2014 I searched $450 (18 boxes) in cents, $4,500 (9 boxes) in quarters, $62,250 (249 boxes) in dimes, and $72,000 (144 boxes) in halves. Here is what I was able to recover:

11,626 - Copper Cents
314 - Wheat Cents
1 - Indian Head Cent
7 - Silver Washington Quarters
46 - Mercury Dimes
369 - Silver Roosevelt Dimes
3 - Silver Canadian Dimes
7 - Walking Liberty halves
11 - Franklin halves
29 - 1964 Kennedy halves
1 - 1997s Silver Half
159 - 40% Kennedy halves

All the best to everyone for 2015.

Nick

Impressive by any standards. :thumbup: Congratulations...you put in the work, you deserve the rewards.

I can't believe you pulled 7 silver quarters out of 9 boxes. That's off the hook!

Happy New Years and heck of a haul Nick. The 46 Mercs & 7 Walkers is impressive indeed. :thumbup:

That's an impressive amount of silver at 1X face. The copper percentage on the cents isn't too bad either. Thanks for posting the totals. I have always enjoyed reading your regular updates in the tracking threads.

Nice totals. It would have been good to see a >1% ROI on the dimes, but you were close.
