*Official March 2011 Half Dollars and Other Coins

[beauanderos]

.......that is a beautiful and inspiring post! Congratulations! What area do you search in?..........

Thank you very much, and I'm in New York City.

Thank God you didn't score this find on the West Coast. I would be grieving for weeks. Glad for you one of us found them and not some teller. Gives hope to the rest of us... although I strongly suspect that box 6 of yours may well be an all-time record since Country has been tracking these. 83 oz! Amazing. Dude... you found more in one day then I found in the entire last year.

Well , well , well....... It was my turn today. Still by no means a cardsncoins super day. But for me....pretty darn good.

Teller- "thank goodness you came in. I picked up some coins the other day from a guy, and I have been keeping them for you."

My mind- Oh god someone call 911.....the doc ain't breathing......snap out of it.....say something Rodie.

Me- "uuh cool...What do you have?"

She presents me with $7.50 face in gov mint plastic and 2x2's along with my box of nicks and pennies.
