Finally Finished My Penny Inventory.

Last time I posted an inventory update was on 7/19/18, and I haven't worked on the inventory at all since then. Too much other stuff going on. I did do a little small dollar and Kennedy half roll hunting, but most of those were brought back to the bank, nothing special. I did pick up 3 sets of the "S" State Quarter Proofs, that I now have to add to my inventory. And, I am so proud of myself , I avoided all temptation to buy any Wheaties. I have been picking up a few coin albums here and there so I can start filling those this winter also. I had to buy a new tractor this year so I didn't buy the Dansco albums, but I picked up a cheaper version I found at Wizard Coin Supply.

Been counting coins off and on since my last post, I decided to skip the inventory of the ATB Quarters until a later date, and worked on my half dollars through 2001. Here are my current inventory numbers Quarters Standing Liberty 1 - 90% Silver Washington 166 - '65 to '98 Washington 1,622 - Statehood Quarters 1,820 - DC & Territories 27. Half Dollars Walking Liberty 4 - Franklin 74 (2 complete sets plus a few extra)- JFK 90% Silver 166 - JFK 40% Silver 107 -JFK '71 to 2001 992. Will start up on the Dollar coins next week during the long turkey day holiday and then will get started on the bag of nickels, and the bag of LMCs I found. I started this inventory process one year ago over the turkey day holiday, I am excited that the end of the tunnel is in sight. This next year I hope to get everything put into books, folders and/or flips, then whatever coins I am not keeping dump at the bank and put into my checking account, so I can buy more rolls to search.

Those DC & Territories are quite difficult to come across.

I use one of those Cassida C200 counting machines. I sure as heck wasn't going to hand count.

If you were a huckster, you would put them in a roll with an AG 1916 merc on one end with the obv showing, and a common D-mint merc with the rev showing on the other and sell them on ebay with a lot of hype.

Just kidding.

Finished up the balance of the Dollar Coin inventory today, 785 Presidential dollars and 34 Silver Eagles. The bulk of the Presidential dollars will be dumped at my bank. I picked up a set of the S mint proofs, so I will have at lease one complete set. The Silver Eagles are plain old raw no mint mark unslabbed coins I picked up from a local coin dealer and put them into a dansco album. Gonna take a little break from inventory,see ya with another update in a couple of weeks...

So, is any of this going into a collection or is it all being cashed in? Some pics would be nice.

I feel your pain. Trying to inventory a hoard is time consuming. I've got 30 pounds of wheat pennies that I need to deal with. More than half of which are loose.

Also, I learned a new term today - Silver Stacker. That certainly applies to me. It might apply to you as well.
