Got to the bank today to get my 4 boxes and they ordered 4k instead, so 8 boxes. I searched one which was a skunk and dumped it. Going back after work for the other two. So I will have 7 to go through this weekend...

All I have to say is...try living in a country that has changed coins so many times there is NOTHING in circulation worth collecting (that I know of).
I'd love to roll hunt...if I could get anything down here in Mexico. :p

AgCoinHunter:
Great find on the 40%'s all in one box!
Here are my totals from 4 boxes from yesterday and today:
1- box was a complete dud.(Skunked) From the remaining 3 boxes: 90% Silver:
1-42S Walker 4 Ben Franklins - 49P and a 54,60 and 63D. 7-64P Kennedy's
40 % Silver: 2-66's 8-67's 7-68's 2-69's
* 1- 1986S Clad Proof 4- N.I.F.C'S- 02D,06D,08 P & D.
Big improvement over my 4 box = 7 coin total from last week!
Just have to keep plugging away as any box could be the one that has a large silver content in it.

9 csr's yielded me a 1964 & 1967. Halves were scarce today so I bought a couple boxes of nickels.

I picked up my usual two boxes of halves on friday and only pulled one 40% silver. However, I did find 6 NIFC:
3 2009 P, 1 2009 D, 1 2003 P, 1 2003 D.
Not too unusual, but I was not expecting to see a 2009 half for a while.

Do any of you guys have banks with machines that count your coins for you? does wachovia have them?

I'm in NC. Wachovia around me don't have coin counters. Parkway banks usually have them. You might check RBC. One branch near me has one and I dump everything EXCEPT halves in their machine because they also order boxes of halves for me. Halves are easy enough to reroll anyway. I also have noticed that alot of the state credit unions have machines.

unknown 95; Yes I have 2 local banks which I use that have coin counting machines in the lobby! One is a TD bank (formerly Commerce Bank)- and they have to change the .50 cent bag every $100.00 which is a real pain, the other, I'm not mentioning for fear of someone dumping their looked at halves on me.

Motos, yes all in one box. Box had 5-6 rolls showing silver on the top when I opened it.
Tore through the 7 other boxes I got Friday and they were all skunks. Have 2 more at home that I picked up Saturday and on the way to pick up 2 more at lunch. Not really expecting much since this bank has supplied a mojority of my skunks.

Last couple days have been good to me. I picked up 7 rolls all customer wrapped and there was one that looked odd. Opened it up and saw a 73 on top but poured out the roll and there was a big suprise. Got 8 Walkers and 5 Franklins as well as 2 64s and 4 40%. Other rolls had a few but nothing like this one. Totals were 16% 90 and 4 40%. These were my first Walker finds so I am really excited! Walker dates: 1936 1937 1941 (near AU) 1942S 1943 1943S 1946 1947

Congrats Cashgardner! I picked up $177 in rolls from a PNC near me. They were brinks in the black and white wrappers, which I've usually had not luck with but.... I had no luck with these either. Big 'ol skunk. I really hate Brinks!!
