*Official December 2022 Half Dollars and Other Coins

[cwgii]

$100 dimes #8, 2 pennies

I’m not sure how someone could fit pennies into a dime roll…

Happens All the time.
But this is from a coin machine bag. I just am sorting in $100 increments. Instead of waiting until I complete the $1000 nag

[cwgii]

Dimes, $100
#9 zip

Went to 14 different banks today looking for halves. 4 of them had a total of $227.50 in halves. Unfortunately, no silver.

First of all, I love the effort! I have not been to that many banks in one day since 2019. I also have questions and a piece of advice. Did you find any Ike's in these 14 banks? Also, more importantly, did you pick up any rolls of pennies or nickels to sort? I usually buy pennies and or nickels when hunting halves. As for the advice, you should request 2 dollar bills as well because the old red label two's carry a premium. If you don't get the old ones, then you can always use them to buy more rolls.

Picked up $260 of nickels and dimes at one CU.
Next one, shut down the coin machine as the lobby is being remodeled. Got $710 of pnd coin bags.

Now for a couple days of sorting.

$470 dimes, almost done, then my one saving grace from a total skunk.....2006 panama .

Have to say this sucked. Not sure if this machine rejects silver, as I never used it.

I did get $35 in pennies to go through and am documenting those separately. I do ask for dollar coins as well and get Ikes occasionally. I also ask for SBA’s as I can sell them locally in circulated condition for $1.10 each. I don’t ask for nickels as I don’t like the fact they’re only 25% nickel. Not a fan of $2 bills as I don’t have a way to sell them for enough to justify my work.

[cwgii]

I have to thin tat most of us just ask, got an funny money.

$202 in halves- no silver.

BUT…

I posted elsewhere how I got 2 silver dollars yesterday. Today I saw the same teller who got me the 58 Ikes yesterday which included an 1879-O and 1925 plain.

Today he said “I just got something else for you today. It was a 1916-P Mercury dime (VG) and 3 Buffalo nickels. The nickels were 35, 36 & 37 (all plain) and the nickels were in an original Littleton holder. All were Fine-VF.

Second bx, strike 2.

[cwgii]

Strike 3....makes you wonder. When Loomis changed the boxing system, did they start screening silver..

[TXSTARFIRE]

What was the change to the boxing system and when did the change occur?

They went from the rolls being, horizontal, to vertical.
They did this in the last 3-4 months.

Just thinking that a ,revamp, of the pro ESS could also have included new sorting machines.

$138.50 total in halves from 4 different banks on Tuesday. No silver whatsoever.

Only three more business days left this year and I have looked through $1,900 in halves in 2022 without finding a single silver half. That is TERRIBLE!

[Saabman]

I've been down most of December, between the flu and strep. 1 outta 3 boxes of halves. I hope to snag a couple more before the end of the month.
