Trapper I am liking that Magic coin you just pulled, I have pulled over 100 of those magic coins and have never seen one that was silver, I have a double Reverse magic coin, not silver. That is sweet.

I had a day off, and went hunting in a nearby town. I found some decently priced Morgans at a pawnshop, then hit the banks. The first one had a couple 40%. The next few had nothing. I then found a place with a coin counter and bought a $90 bag of halves. I got it home and found lots of good stuff: a gold plated '96, a Franklin, JFK 40% and 90%, even a Canadian silver half!

4 90%
1 '57D
3 '64

1 80%
'67 Canadian Centennial

7 40%
2 '66
2 '67
2 '68D
1 '69

Very nice! Wish my banks had random coins... anything more than a couple of coins goes straight into the coin counter and then into the bags. I am sure many a silver coin goes into the bags and off to the fed without anyone at the bank even looking at it. Oh well.

It wasn't a bank, it was a store with a coin counter. Sometimes they will sell me bags. Their counter isn't a Coinstar, so it counts all kinds of weird stuff. I've gotten lots of silver, UK and Australian pre-decimal pennies, U.S. large cents, car wash tokens, guitar picks, etc. I never found Canadian until now.

1 box left from Friday: a couple of NIFC.

I finally got some good boxes today. All 4 had silver and 2 had at least 1 ender.

Box 1: 3 enders.

28 40%ers and a blow torched coin that I am pretty sure is 1964 but you can't read the date.

Box 2: 2 1964's

Box 3: 1 ender. 1 1964 and 4 40%ers.

Box 4: a 1901 British, a 1964, 16 40%ers, and my 2nd Barber (not as awesome as my 1892S was but I'll take what I can get)

Since I only have 21 days left before Chase stops taking loose coin I guess it is better to have gone out on an upswing rather than a slump.

4 boxes this morning and only 1-64 and 4-2013, My last box was another box with double enders of bicentennials, I took a closer look at the rolls and it appears that some may have unrolled one end and hand placed these rolls together, One end of roll did not appear to be machine tight and the paper appeared to have more wear than new ones. Just an observation. My silver finds in boxes have dropped, I just hope I don't another box of double enders of bicentennials. "LOVE THE HUNT!"
