    A bit off the quarter discovery topic. Got to thinking with all the rolls you get and open, you should consider buying coin rolling machines. Congratulations on your find. :)

    Congratulations!
    You certainly deserve it given your hard work, dedication and eye for details.

    I would have certainly passed it by!

    Congratulations on the variety! With coin roll hunting, you have to take them as you find them, condition-wise. As a CRH trophy, it's probably a coin you'll never want to sell, so the damage isn't really important. ;)

    It's a great feeling isn't it? You have to look at it 3 or 4 time as your heart skips a beat and take your breath away!

    I may have already asked you this question years ago. How are you dumping all those searched coins? Are you re-rolling them and taking them back to the banks?

    No, I never re-roll them.
    I dump them at several various banks.
    Thanks

    those dang roll wrapping machines causing machine damage

    I wonder how much it would sell for on eBay as is?

    Not sure what's more fun :
    searching or finding.
    But it's the same passionate force either way. Good !

    Coin-gradulations, joey-nice find and yes there is damage with the head scratch, but so what? At least you found one. I never have and I search 2 boxes of quarters every week for over the last 2 years. Still a lot of value in it.
