I spent six dollar coins to buy a 2032 battery for a garage door opener, and another two dollar coins to tip my barber. That's $8 total.

I'm not sure if the public is ready for another $100K

2 years ago I was at Walmart speeding halves and the woman behind me in line was a teller from Chase which was across the parking lot where I got all of my halves from.

I told her "See I really spend them not just dump them back elsewhere"

At that time I was spending 50% of what I searched which is what got me started in the first place 3 years ago with one box of halves a month which I spent 100% of which escalated at it's peak to $9K a week in halves (of which I could not spend even a minute portion of)

Jack jeckel, at $9000 per week you were probably searching the same coins multiple times. I am sure there is a diagnosis for this behavior. I hope you found a lot of silver.

For my contribution:
5 pres dollars and 3 Kennedys at the club for drinks and tips
2 pres dollars and 1 Kennedy at the Greek food festival
1 pres dollar for office supplies
3 pres dollars and 1 Kennedy at the coin show for supplies
6 Kennedys at Wendys

As per my thoughts posted in this thread: https://goccf.com/t/177341

There are those who mark coins and those who lie on a public forum.

Anyone who is 100% against marking coins WILL grab a sharpie after 10 or 20 or 30 straight skunk boxes. It all depends on your personal threshold and how much mentally you can take before you ask yourself how many times have I seen this coin before marking it to find out.
