Got some CWR in a private sale last Monday - just had to scratch the itch on a bank holiday.

Found an ad on FB and paid a $10 premium for 175 Ikes and $15 in wheaties, steelies, nickels, and some impared half proofs.

this gem was among the nickels - absolutely the show stealer!

I’m pretty sure the artist could easily have fiddled with the reverse to make it resemble the famous 3-legger, but I’ve never had one in hand so hope springs eternal 🤷‍♂️🤪

Happy hunting and good luck!

Wide rim 1979 SBA (bottom coin)

I bought some straight from the mint. Should I open them or sell them as sealed?

I've never found more than two silvers in a box, ended up finding 17 in one box. I wonder if a collection was dumped at some point. The coin on the right is the lone non-silver Canadian. All were 57-64 Roosevelts, over half being 64's.

This is a whole new level of douchebaggery. Found a 1982-S marked on the reverse and literally colored-in on the obverse

Like I understand people “mark” their coins that they search but why drill into an otherwise decent looking NIFC?

I've been through 3 boxes of halves and found 1 40%, in the second to last roll. Also finished 2 boxes of quarters, one was a west coast box so there were a lot of coins that'll take the place of some D's in the books. A couple boxes of nickels with zero silver, and zero Buffalo's. One box had around 300-400 heat damaged coins. I've got 2 more nickel boxes to go, hopefully they're better. I kinda finished on a high note though. I searched the ends of my pennies and out of 5 boxes had 1 wheat, and 2 dimes. The only thing that saved the day was an 1881 ender.

The lady at my regular branch was out this week so my order wasn't acknowledged until calling today to see if they were available. Was able to stop by two other branches. The halves are already searched but we will see what comes of it! 🤷🏾‍♂️

Missed the importance of mentioning another notable find from my first box…1987-D.

That was fun. Not sure if Ill do it again, but figured Id try it at least once.

Solid 3 box hunt! It’s been a long time since I’ve gotten a 90% and even longer for a V nickel! Not a bad haul’

Nickel box search. Got excited seeing the customer wraps. More than halfway through….

OLDEST and only coin set aside so far was a meh 1970s.

After beginning just the week prior I had prepped for all good things to come - I stocked up on half dollars wrappers to manage the many common I might expect to cash back in and I ordered my first $500 box. It arrived this week and am happy to report some successes. Prize find was a single 1967. I also saved 44 NIFCs found and a few others for fun. The dime rolls while in old wrappers were someone else’s cast offs with no finds or coins saved. Good luck to all. Time to order my second box of halves for sure!

I opened a few rolls, no privy. No Enders. Is it worth searching all the rolls? Seems like most are getting tons of privy per box, wondering if anyone has had boxes with just a few marked coins?

Recently went through a jar of coins I’ve had forever and found some old coins including a 1906 indian head penny. Got the itch to look for more and went to the bank to get some rolls. I found 5 wheaties and a couple shiny coppers all out of the same roll! Have I peaked already?

I just got started coin roll hunting and have been through $1000 of halves and $350 of quarters and have only found a scuffed W are these odds normal?

wish me luck

Always happy to find something in nice condition.
While these aren’t silver, they’re still old in the nice condition.

I consider this, a rare little fine, even though it’s not more than face value.

This is why I always search rolls that appear to have been previously searched. I picked up 5 rolls last week, 4 were CWR and 1 MWR. The MWR was all new We The People quarters. I got my first few in change last week, but looks like my CU is getting them now… Today I picked up 4 rolls, all CWR. the first two were all We The People, so I assume a fellow hunter picked them up last week, searched them, then wrapped and dumped. One other roll had a Hot Springs that I need for my book so that was a win. The last roll had 13 bicentennials which leads me to believe they were wrapped by another hunter deciding to dump some of them, just because what are the odds there’s that many in one roll. Then the jackpot shows up! ‘64 silver!

Goes to show not all hunters are looking for the same thing so there might be something for you in that previously searched roll

I hardly ever do quarters, this was pure luck. Had there been dimes or halves I would not have picked up this bag. Speaking of dimes, I will try to get the dimes from this CU when they pop

Within one box of machine wrapped rolls I found 7 West Points and 2 S mint business strikes. Great hunt tonight definitely the best quarter box I’ve ever searched. Still never have found a silver in machined Wrapped rolls.
