Got a Fed box today myself (& nickels)......hopefully it'll be better than a "zero" for me again too !

And.....I am constantly reminded that I've NEVER found any Ben Franklins or Walkers while searching halves.....only Kennedys is all I've EVER found.....and I've searched totals up there with the "medium range" half hunters ! ....
$1,000.00 - $2,000.00 every month as an average......but why have I never seen anything but a Kennedy in all that searching, in all this time ? ... it isn't fair I tell you ! ....

Eaglefoot - I'm surprised you haven't had any Walkers/Franklins based on your location in the middle of the country. When I travel to St Louis - I do pretty well roll searching the local banks for nickels and halves. You aren't that far off from that part of the country.

I'm sure you'll hit one of those mother-loads one day.

I don't have the woes of eaglefoot, though today I too got skunked on $30 in CWR. Did fill three holes. Anyone take red marker down the edge? If so, I've found your dumps.

Cleaned out the bank vault - $460 ... one NIFC 2001P but that's it. These were Strings & Sons rolls, but it looks like my area is hit pretty hard. A lot of marks on the coins, from at least 5 different searchers. Better luck next time I guess.

Hang in there Gang!

It's been bad, so it's got to turn around for the best.

Good Luck Hunting!
