Had 2 good boxes, 2 not so good. Highlites were the 82-83 P&D. Never really believed the FMV site until the past few days.I had a roll of 82-p gone within hours. Sold about 10 singles as well. My son wanted to test the waters with a roll of 82-D. He had an asking price of 27.00; and it went in 1/2 hour. I think he'll put up some others today. He does the bay, where I have enough connects by now that a few phone calls saves me the hassle. Selling to bay connects off-auction? Hmmm..... That's for another thread. Here's the basic take:

yeah I'm confused as well. I've done 4 boxes and gotten some good finds, but way fewer than that.

were these boxes special in some way?

Maineman, FMV puts the 82-P @ .24 in G4 and 3.60 in MS60. It rivals most other dates. I've had no problem getting the MS value, especially when asking 2.50.
Obla...., Actually, this lot as a whole stunk. I had an entire box that looked "bleached-out". The box I'm messing with now is incredibly beat-up. Last trip to that bank for awhile. The finest box ever came from a check-cashing joint. These boxes from the bank are dated from Oct. Those from June-July are pretty productive.

hmm...fill me in. so you think check cashing places are worth a shot?

do they usually have boxes of coin on hand?
do you have to actually cash a check there to get the coin?
etc.

If you can them from them. I live in a small city and know the mgr. pretty well. One of my wife's buddies. At one point, I cashed very large checks there, which helps, I guess. They dont tell you they can order them, that's not their focus. It's always worth a shot. They tend to have the older boxes. At first I was getting the older ones from my bank, but I went through all they had. Each shipment seems a little poorer. New hunting ground needed.

I found 10 2009-D's in the brinks box I went through last night, along with 12 2010-D's. Seems the 2009's are finally starting to show up out here in Cali.

Only other one worth mentioning was a 1945-S silver.

That 1st box had so many, I didn't save anything under about 50. Heck, even in AU50, they're FMV valued at 2.00 As far as selling my son did a quicky auction and got 27. for a roll of 82-Ds, UNC being FMV valued at .96 each. He was here awhile ago and said he he had alot of mailing to do tomorrow I sold a roll of Ps and a few other things to people I know. My son will probably put a roll or two together tonight. This stinki' box I'm in now appears to have gotten wet at some point. Wouldn't be so bad, but it's my last one till 9 tomorrow morning.
