    nicely done. not only for our viewing pleasure and ease to scroll but also, makes it easier to see if there is something more going on with one's coins that some of us with a good amount of experience can share, with someone that takes nice images. :)

    Those all look really nice and almost good enough for an album but that’s all. Now granted the 59 and 76 might go 66 which is perfect for an album.

    These remind me of my very first order where nothing was better than 65 even though I thought they were much better.

    67 has to look so good almost perfect otherwise it’s a 66!

    However there is a balance whereas if you have a mediocre strike with minimal but consistent Luster and no hit’s, it can reach 67. Versus a very heavy strike with thick luster that would otherwise grade 68 but would settle at 67 even with a few hits.

    Some of those you’re showing are MS64RB.
    Here is an example of two MS67s
    The 74 has a heavier strike and some hits whereas the 75 has a softer strike but cleaner fields both graded 67.

    You see the difference right? Even though they’re both taking a nap it’s easy to see that the 74 has a much Nicer hair do. I will call it the dapper Dan effect, My Hair :D

    Another nice find Joey! I have not found any of these yet. For some reason the Homestead quarters seem to be in escellent condition when I find them. All of a sudden I can't get many quarters now. Just a few weeks ago, I could get 10 boxes a week, If I wanted. My bank tanked out on me, they got a new head teller that only lets you get a roll at a time. Time to can this bank and go elsewhere.

    Your post reminded me and to remind others... If you guys have gone to banks that will not give you coins because you're not a account holder, go back and try again if it's been over 6 months. Chances are good the staff has turned over with new tellers. This has worked for me on more then one occasion.

    I still have a handful of 2000 P Sacagawea Mint Rolls, and I've opened 3 I believe during the last few years.
    I really wanted some OBW rolls of these too...you know...'cause I'm gonna find a mule! :blush:

    I finally found one original bank roll and I just received it, purchased for just a few bucks over face!
    Pretty sure I won't be disappointed if there's a mule in there lol!!!
    But unfortunately this happened during it's journey to me...
    Seller was awesome and refunded the shipping.
    So it's getting opened this weekend

    Yep, I agree. However, this one and a few other recent finds of mine. Been quite rather good, in condition.
    I believe, in time . These "W's", in any condition. Will carry decent premiums!
    A mint release that has that low mintage but the real advantage is. Their general release! First of its kind.

    My half dollar find from this week's 2 box search ($1000.00)
    A 1983 no "FG" Kennedy half dollar.


    Yep! That's all folks!
    These two boxes were my worst skunking ever.
    No silver :'(
    No foreign :s
    No BU coins
    No NIFC's - Not even a beat up throw back. :|
    Absolutely nothing but the 1983 no "FG" and this was in the 95th roll.
    These coins are from the federal reserve, not customer wrapped. I'd swear that someone else searched through them if I didn't know better!

    do you, from time to time, just zip down through the VV listing for 64-forward just to brush up and get reminded of things to look for?

    being as diverse as i am, i absolutely have to do it. also go through CF, pop reports, price guide etc help as well. of course a person only need put as much time/effort in as they want for it to still be enjoyable and so myself, do it sporadically.

    No, but I really don't understand what you are asking here.
    Quarters are the most promising. Even if I find a variety that no one wants, it is still fun to find and ID it and add it to my collection. New quarter varieties are showing up all the time.
