Thanks all. Quote: What are some of the other dollar coins you're are searching for? I'm not really searching for anything specific. I just enjoy the hunt. Major errors would be fun, but none so far. In one of the first boxes I searched I found a 170 degree rotated reverse Sacagawea. I didn't even know that was a recognized variety. I started searching dollars sort of by accident. I asked my credit union to order me a couple of boxes of half dollars. They don't order coins often. When they finally got around to it, the manager couldn't remember if I wanted dollars or half dollars so she ordered both. She offered to send them back, but I took them just for grins. When I started finding proof coins and lots of NIFCs I was hooked. I put together sets for my great niece and my wife's great nephews, now it's just for fun. It's 100+ F outside so it's a fun diversion in the AC.

Keep an eye out for the 2000-P Cheerios dollar, the 2000-P Sacagawea speared eagle and the 2007-P Washington dollar elongated ray. You could make some real money with those!

Finished my bonus box tonight and came up with a bunch of fun finds. Lots of Presidential NIFCs including multiples of Teddy Roosevelt and George Bush.  Also, about half a roll of Indian Citizenship dollars, a couple of Innovation dollars, and an impaired 2005-S Sac proof.  I hope I get my second bonus box next week!

My second bonus box took awhile since we went on vacation, but it was worth the wait. I pulled out a nice stack of NIFCs including a dozen George Bush and 50 BU 2024 Indian Citizenship dollars. Also, a couple of Innovation dollars, which I like because their mintage is less than the 1909 S VDB cent. Small dollar boxes continue to be the most productive boxes for me. I'm glad the guy who originally ordered these never picked them up.

First time doing a box of dollar coins! Wound up with 7 Innovation dollars, 16 NIFC Sacagawea dollars: 8 pre-2009 and 8 post-2011, 3 impaired proofs (definitely excited for the two 2013-S Native American proofs - that's gotta be my favorite design), and the remainder in NIFC Presidential dollars - I feel like I got just about one of every NIFC president! Definitely making me itch to hunt through more. Edit: Oh and one 500-yen coin from Japan! Made $2 there
