Eyeluvcoins Valued Member United States 186 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 12:09 pm Thank you, jbuck ! Also, jbuck, did you read my last post about dumping boxes? I would love your feedback on that Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 193832 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 12:48 pm Sorry, but my roll hunting experience is limited to the loose roles; I have never acquired a box. Dumping has never been an issue since I usually just spend what I do not keep. So, my answer is you will not know until you try. But hopefully someone else will have a more accurate opinion.

bbradford71 Valued Member United States 286 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 1:04 pm I have found it easy with Chase to go through the drive threw and deposit my dumps, I go to the commercial window with a box of halves or nickels (re-rolled of course)and a filled out deposit slip. I deposited a whole box of halves and $400 in nickels at the same time and nothing was negative was said to me, so I am assuming all is good. I do rotate my dumps between two different branches just to be on the safe side. Report this Post to the Staff

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10064 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 4:17 pm WOW! Great find bishftl This has always been one of my goals to find in circulation/rolls. Back in the early 70s and into the 80s my grandfather and I went through a lot of halves hoping to find one - never did We found Walkers, Franklins, 90% JFKs etc, but the 70d was always the "holy grail" to find so he could complete the collection. He enjoyed the hunt rather than going to a coin shop and buying. He never did get one. Funny that brings back another memory about halves. He had never found a 1948 P Franklin although he had been collecting since the late 50s/60s. So we kids got together and bought him an UNC 1948 to complete his set. Guess what he found - literally - the next week? And to top it off, his find was also an UNC coin How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

danmc00 Valued Member United States 130 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 5:13 pm 10 boxes last night only yielded 9 40% and 2 90 %. Things have really started to dry up. Not to mention my bank now wants to charge me $7.50 per box to order these. I would have lost money doing this with what I found last night. Guess it's on to another bank. Closed all my accounts there today. Report this Post to the Staff

A few thousand would be stretching it. A few million, and they'd be worth scrap value only. Report this Post to the Staff
mountainman 2 Valued Member United States 351 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 6:53 pm Found this in one of my boxes today. Can anyone ID it? Nice meeting you today Chuckster 125. Report this Post to the Staff
Eyeluvcoins Valued Member United States 186 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 6:55 pm it looks Arabic. I know that doesn't help much :-) Cool Find, though ! Report this Post to the Staff
chuckster 125 Pillar of the Community United States 4113 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 8:50 pm mountainman 2 : Same here, pleasure meeting you. Try posting pics of the foreign coin over at the World Coins and Commem Forum. Some member over there will definitely ID it for you. I know , after seeing it here that I was wrong in telling you earlier that it might be Chinese. It's not. I agree with Eyeluvcoins, it's either Arabic or maybe from India or Maylasia? Good luck with your hunting! Chuck. Report this Post to the Staff
