    Nickels are tough to find in high grades and from circulation. Need to find some crusty ole rolls to even have a chance.

    Cool find dude. I'll need to check my 39's as I wasn't aware of these.

    I’m sorry :D

    Variety pack today. Hopefully the unmarked ones are not okay to spend or use at the store.

    Some more than others, lol

    Did everyone all of a sudden stop coin roll searching? No post on this thread since Sept.20 :/
    My half dollar $1000 search for this week I got 80 NIFC's and 0 silvers. The NIFC's were mostly 2006-D, 2007-P, 2007-D, 2008-P, 2008-D and 2010-D's with a few other dates. Three of them I threw back because they were pretty environmentally damaged. One NIFC was a 1987. 80 NIFC (2002-2020) coins is double my earlier biggest finds in 2 boxes($1000). I would like to get one roll BU of each date and mm from 2002-2020 and then I will put any further higher mintage coins back for someone else to find.

    Congratulations on your finds!
    I've been recently back in the game but very limited. Only about 10 cent rolls left. Nothing significant yet. A few wheaties but no big deal. Trying to catch the 1980p ddo.
    Nice variety if you can find one. I'll continue my last search tonight with the 10 rolls. I'll keep you guys clued in if any fortunate finds. Thanks ;)

    Banks in my area are refusing to sell rolls. Was able to get $150 in quarters from 2 locations after like 6-7 banks. Noting interesting in them though.

    I have never found the 1980 DDO and I have been looking since about 1982/3.

  • joeykoinsjoeykoins Posts: 15,346 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Okay, Here ya go guys!

    Picked up at my bank today. Was going to try silver (Quarters) but I decided for the many more opportunities in the Lincoln cent field. Obsessed in hunting down my newly interested 1980p DDO cent! Lol.
    Will start tonight. Thanks guys.
    Wow, it feels good to be back into the game. :D

    I’ve gone through six boxes in the past week just nothing worth reporting yet.
    I drove 2 hours to a small town and got 4 boxes at one bank, all looked promising in old style wrappers. Turned out to be someone else’s drop bank though.

    Joey. Good morning. This is good to see. Welcome back

    🎶 shout shout, let it all out 🎶

  • CoinscratchCoinscratch Posts: 8,511 ✭✭✭✭✭

    @joeykoins Nice find! I got one of those a while back. Good luck with the 80d and the 92 close am and the 99 wide am...........

    [Ready for the weekend!
    At least 15,000 pennies you would think one of them, just one would make the cut :D]

    Well if not you can always try making some home defense 12 Gauge shells - they might just fit! Replace the whimpy birdshot with a stack of 25. I know I wouldn't want to see 25 Lincoln cents flying at me at 900fps - :D

  • CoinscratchCoinscratch Posts: 8,511 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Imagine the sound that would make and the size of the spread would be very effective.
    Back when we were kids and had BB gun wars i used to load 15 to 20 BBs down the barrel of my 766 Crossman and pump it up about 40 times. It too was very effective :D

    Went to the grocery store today. While I was there, I knew I was running out of rolls of coins at home. Nothing found in my bank box since the first roll. The 2011p ddo cent. Banks are closed today so I thought I'd give it a shot and ask the clerk behind the counter for any rolls of coins?
    Well, it worked! Not much but something. 1 roll of Quarters and 3 rolls of nickels. Plus, I Still have 14 rolls of cents left from my bank box. My task for tonight. Lol.

    160 additional chances

    to hunt down silver, errors, varieties, proofs, key coins and more "W" Quarters!
    Here we GO...

    That's not pmd on the quarter. Struck through grease and fibers

    Just catching up on this thread and saw your post.

    Those marks look like they may have been on the planchet before striking - in other words, the quarter may have been struck on a damaged planchet.

    Below is an example of an Eisenhower dollar struck on a damaged planchet. In this case, like your quarter, the damage is largely confined to one side.

    Something made the letter R go a different thickness of the obverse type.

  • In4apennyIn4apenny Posts: 298 ✭✭✭

    Just about finished my latest box of halves, no silver, 45 NIFCs, 13 1982 Ds, 8 1982ps, 4 1991 Ds 65 to 67. Had a pro look at one I took to a local coin show, 65 in his opinion. 2 are better than the one I took, will see at the next show. Started to cull down the halves from last year and early this year, saved more than I should in AU/MS in common years. I have no trouble ordering boxes of halves from my bank. Cheers.

    Along with 7 Nickel rolls.

    Small amount but something, right?
    I'll search soon. ;)

    @joeykoins Good luck dude. I grabbed a mixed bag today from several locations. So far a few marked up PLs and luster bombs but nothing worthy of a visit to our beloved Coin Gods… Just Yet :)

  • joeykoinsjoeykoins Posts: 15,346 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I DON'T BELIEVE IT!

    First roll of only 2 half dollar rolls!
    Do you guys see what I see?

    I see at least 2, maybe 3?


    These are the first half dollar rolls I hunted since before I got sick. Lol

    Yes, me too. Or a proof.
    Still can't believe I found 2 silver coins in only two rolls.
    Nothing in the 2nd roll. :)
    About $7 worth of silver!
