What was it like to crh in the 1970s? Even if we were talking 1979, that's really only 15 years since most coins went clad. So your only "bad" coins would be the 1965s to 1979s if we are talking dimes, quarters, halves. Did you just get hit with 90% 1965s back then? We were nearing the big silver run up so I'd imagine people were picking these out of circulation left and right.

Even better did any of you personally hunt back then? I was not alive and didn't get into coins/currency until the 90s. I primarily just picked up $2 bills from the bank and wasn't really into coins back then.

An interesting question.

I can only speak to the 1990s when I was into CRH. I started collecting in 1978 and through much of the 1980s I was just searching my family's pocket change or the till when I worked retail.
