*Official May 2011 Half Dollars and Other Coins

[adamsp27]

$100 Nickels - Skunk

[Locutus]

Four boxes $500 halves from B of A, my regular weekly order.

Box #20 -- Skunk
Box #21 -- Skunk
Box #22 -- Skunk
Box #23 -- Skunk for silver, but there was an unusual find: a 1983 Kennedy plated with what appears to be gold. It also has two tiny dates stamped to the left and right of Kennedy's bust, 1960 & 1985. These appear to have been stamped after the plating. Coin weight is 11.3 g.

Well that does it for B of A. 13 boxes from them, all skunks. I'm convinced that their coinage has already had the silver sorted out. I'm going to cancel orders with them going forward, and order my coins elsewhere.

Miss me boys and girls?

I've been playing boy scout and doing good deeds and pretty much wore my ass out. For the past ten days I've been leaving work early each day and volunteering with the clean up from the tornado along with all day Saturday and Sunday. The scale of damage in some area is just unbelievable. I'm too damn old and too out of shape for this sort of stuff. Going back to normal now and with luck in a few months I'll be able to move without pain.

Anyway, sorted a bit tonight.
