Was out of town, hauling Amish to look at another job site. While out I stopped at 2 annex bank facilities and a main bank of one. Short story, $102.50 in halves, ten rolls and $2.50 loose. First roll have 3 40%, 1965, 1968 and 1969. last roll had another 1968. Main bank ask how many rolls I wanted, spent my last $30.00 getting the 10 rolls. Moral........never leave home with less than $500.00. There might be more, much more still in that bank vault. Living the dream! Webekin

That is the camera I am using, not sure what I am doing wrong, has to be a lighting issue, practice, practice, practice. Four boxes from last night, yielded 1-66, possible SMS, 1-68, and 1-69. Need to take a closer look at the 66 to see if its a SMS Highly reflective fields, there is toning on both sides so I have to take a closer look at it. Good Luck everyone. One more set of 4 this week. Hoping for a big score.

I don't think you're doing anything wrong. It's not the easiest/user friendly scope to use. I usually use an additional source of lighting and the flex arm is bear to use an well.

Check out this thread. You might find some additional information. Check out Crazyb0's post. The focus arm on his looks much easier to use. I may have to upgrade.

I went to my bank and made my dump today, While I was using the coin machine, it had to be opened, so I took a peek in the reject tub and What I Scored for A Dollar.

Or it was inherited and the heir was ignorant of its premium value.
