Thanks for the good vibes, fellas! My dad actually had no interest in varieties which is why I think there is some variety enrichment in this huge lot. In fact in going through his tubes of 1938 S LWC I have found several FS-501 and -502 as well as a couple DDRs.
He was almost 92 and I feel lucky to have had 48 1/2 years with the guy. Lots of great memories. |

My dad passed away about a month ago and left a sizeable LWC collection to me, which includes several albums as well as dozens and dozens of tubed bulk wheats. In going through them, I've been finding a LOT of varieties including this one. Not a fan of the carbon spot but it's a such a solid RPM (here in Stage F).
I'll photograph more of the finds over the coming weeks, while I absorb many of these into my own collection and prepare to sell duplicates from my own years of collecting.

So far 18 2024 P and 6 2024 D. I'm about 10 miles west of the Philly mint FWIW.
Notably ALL of the 2024 D I have found have come exclusively from customer-wrapped rolls; the 2024 P both machine- and customer-wrapped rolls.
And thus far not a single 2025 from either mint! |

Some banks might offer you limited access without an account - for example PNC bank (here in SE PA) will offer non-customers $20 in change per visit. Worth checking around.
One of my Wells Fargo branches was very hesitant recently to dole out CWR of dimes since they "can't guarantee" what's in them as you are experiencing (likely due to complaints of short rolls). This came back to bite me in the backside just yesterday as I took in $80 of dime CWR that were short 2-5 dukes PER ROLL (at a different branch).
Sorry, digressing here but I find so much variation from one branch to the next that perhaps just visiting some other branches might prove fruitful. |

| E&V, thanks for pointing this out! Barely any reeding on the edge of this coin.only on a little bit of the rim on either side of the "fat lip". Not the railroad track I'm used to seeing with partial collar. Great info and I'm learning new stuff today! |

Back for a quick update.
In the last few weeks dimes were super slow. Since my last post above I found 3 silver dimes (43 P, 47 P, 62 D) and a 2007 S clad proof all in MWR. I gave my favorite local branches a break for the past two weeks and that certainly played well, as today $90 in CWR gave up SIX silver dimes: 54 D and 5 x 1964 P. The 64s are gorgeous specimens that seem have found their way into circulation only recently - and they were all in a single roll along with that 54 D.

| Continuing to have some decent luck, including a 42 P silver nickel; a 2007 S proof and a 1974 S proof that's been in circuation a VERY long time; a couple more 2024s (P and D) plus 2009s (P and D); and a few early 60s BU examples. Nothing spectacular or photo worthy but spicy hunts are always welcome. |

SLOW going again here with silver dimes. Since my last post (51S, 2009 S clad proof) above, a total of 9 silver dimes with no additions to the circ Roosevelt album. No complaints finding silver, but back to the typically inefficient dime hunting, with LOTS of clad and short rolls to locate a silver dime.
Since 21 Feb:
1948 D
1956 P x 2
1962 D x 3
1962 P
1963 D
1964 P |
