I spent $70 in SBA and Prez dollars at a coin show last week. However, I DO NOT THINK that they qualify as being circulated.

I will leave that decision for the OP.

of course they would count. that's circulation. I don't think the dealers are going to put them in 2x2s and sell them.

I bought a box of Halfs a few weeks ago. I've now spent $50 worth of them. Spent on such things as:

Tips
A brat at Carver Hawkeye Arena (Iowa Basketball)
Fast food lunches
Coffee fund at work (I noticed most of the ones I drop into the can get removed during the day)
Cafeteria at work

New total is: $67,449.00

The Packers finally won again so I got to take advantage of the free McDonalds offer when they win.

Spent $2 in SBA's for breakfast.

Spent $2 in SBA's for lunch.

Spent $2 in SBA's for dinner and the kid at the register said the total is $1.06. I said I know that is why I gave you $2. HE said he didn't know they till made silver dollar coins instead of the gold ones and I had to explain that from 1979 to 1981 they were silver (I left out 1999 so as not to confuse him)

That is how I started out roll hunting.

Got a $500 box once a month and spent them all.

As I upped the pickups I ran out of opportunities to spend them and had to start the dump game.
