roll searching tonight

[daviscfad]

so i have been doing some roll searching tonight.. windows up and nice breeze coming in.. i actually picked up a box of customer wrapped coin along with a box of nf string.. i went through the customer wrapped box first.. of course you got the guy trying to sneak a nickel in by adding a penny in the boxx. then i get the honest guy who cuts the roll short 10 cents so he throws a dime in... ALl in all i found 1 buffalo and some pretty nice higher grade nickels.. handful of pre 64's.. I noticed when i go through the fed wrapped box that i have a few rolls showing buffalos.. I said now thats cool.. so amongst waiting i decided to open a roll.. it yielded 4 buffs and a 1942 d.. I was like wow I then say let me get a random roll, this time its 5 buffs, 1 1943 war nickel, 2 1940s nickels, and a 1950 nicke l.. i just stopped right there and figured i would share.. I have always had good luck with nickels and sometimes wonder why i dont sort them more

Odd thread to resurrect! Not educational so much! But a nice 'fish story' to relive!

What a sweeet box!
