How cool is this?!
I haven't found a silver war nickel in an honest 25 boxes or so...Actually I think none this year! Until this morning...
Cool find and those numbers are not good. You're searching fed though correct? Or have those been better..
Loomis rolls, Denver area. Most have been from Chase. My silver war nickel finds seemed to have died off dramatically since about 2019.
Close...but not the same path through the coin. I saw that this one doesn't appear to be listed on https://cuds-on-coins.com/
Coins are Neato!

They were released into circulation on August 14th...again, I live only about 5 miles (as the crow flies) from the Denver mint and they just showed up in some change today. Still none in boxes yet. Only took about 7 weeks lol

I just finished going through a box of quarters I got from my credit Union Thursday. I found a 2020 W Tallgrass quarter and a 1969 S Clad Proof quarter
Both have a little wear, but are a nice find. 🙂🤑🤠

Looks like an original bank roll but nothing!

A bottom of the barrel West Point Quarter CRH find. Here it is a very well circulated through the stores and the parking g lot find.
However, it is still a 2020W Weirs Farm Quarter.
It actually looks worse in hand

This box found me today an hour and a half off my route to check a coin shop for mint sets. There were only a scant few to choose from but before I could buy them he mentioned a collection that just came in including these cents…. Back to the shelf went the mint sets and the box was mine.
They look pretty tasty with some toners and I’ve never seen foil wrapped rolls so they should be pretty interesting. I’ll post any winners as I slow roll through this one.
Found this one yesterday, not bad after it's acetone bath. Bat 20 V75! Did anyone see the movie Bat 21 with Gene Hackman and Danny Glover?? Good movie!
My favorite Chase teller said she had a customer bring in some Loomis rolls.
As soon as I saw them I could tell they were faded and had been sitting around for some time.
It's a dump of someone's America The Beautiful rolls from 2002 - 2008.
I decided to open the one marked 2006 since it had been broken and was taped on the side from someone dropping it most likely...sure enough, a solid fresh roll of 2006 South Carolinas.
That was a good one to open first since they need to be in MS67 or 68 to be worth anything.
There was maybe one MS66 in there and they have zero toning, all nice blast white..
Which roll would you open next knowing that MS66 is likely the max grade in any of these?

This must be my "lucky" week for old notes. Picked up the 1969 $1
in change. Also posted another with an Irish Shamrock clover
imprint. I suspect this was stamped on - wishful that it could be
like the Del Monte $20 which was on auction recently. What Luck !
Any thoughts on how this imprint came to be ??? (not at-from the BEP ?)
BTW both of the serial numbers are quite very interesting, if you notice !
I finally found a "W" quarter!!! The only thing, it was in an envelope our good friend and forum member @OAKSTAR sent me! . So now I have a "W" quarter as I have not found a single one in or around the Cleveland area, Ohio banks/retailers change.
THANK YOU MUCH OAKSTAR! Appreciate the Hell out of it!!!!!!!!!!

I have found several proofs (pictures posted) but not yet a silver.
Here are some finds from change last week :
The Idar Quarter is "Perfect" and nice.
The 1977 $1 note is crisp and almost new and was a big surprise.
Hard to believe people breaking silver proof's out of proof sets and spending them but those people obviously don't know what they have.
