Got The Word Out With Favorable Results...

I still have $125 of the $286 I'm going through now. I will get the $50 on Thursday and the next batch at the end of the month. The charity I picked the $286 up from has an ongoing penny drive and I will be getting them on a bi-weekly basis as well.

I found 2 x 2006 No P No Logos last week and 2 x 1985 pointed 5's along with several other minor errors and varieties. I have also started keeping coins that have eye appeal to me to make date rolls from. Keeps me busy.

Thanks SHAFTA9a. I hope to pull a few as well. Still need the 1922 - 1925. They have eluded me.

Yeah.. It's very difficult to find those dates in big batches of cents but, it does happen.

I had to get a few of those ones on ebay..

Just pulled a 1962 Harp. It is my 3rd Harp so far. Still no Guitar. Sigh. LOL

I will post a pic a bit later.

I always watch in stores when I'm shopping and the like. I look on the counters for jugs and jars for charities and the like who are collecting coinage. Then I get in contact with the charities and explain that I'm a collector and would like to buy their cents off them. I explain that it helps them as well as me as they do not have to cart them off to the bank. I also tell them that they do not need to roll them (If they were rolling them. All they need is a count of how many they have. If they are rolling them...I explain to them about the bags you can get for free from the banks that have the $25 line on the bag. I have showed a few how to use the bags to make sure that there is $25 in it. All that they can say is No. It can't hurt. I actually pay one charity $27 per $25 worth. That way they make a few more $$ for charity and if you find something it was worth it.
