My bank makes me wait 3 weeks for 1 box! I guess they just don't want to be bothered.

Wow. Some of you have very difficult banks. Where is everyone from? Western PA has been great so far for any of my needs.

First box!

1987-d! Filled all but a few spots in my album, skunked on silver tho!

Does anyone know why there were no circulation strikes in 1987?

Got my next two boxes today from my bank. I gave Tina, the teller that helps me, a $20 gift card to Walmarts.

She said I did not have to do it seeing it was her job, but I told her I appreciated her going to all the trouble
of ordering them and the like. The boxes are heavy and she totes them out of the vault every single time with no complaints.

Hopefully, she will get something she likes.

As for these two boxes, they have the same greyish wrappers as the last two which were not as good as the first
four boxes which had yellow and white wrappers. All the showing coins look extremely worn and I see quite a few
bicentennials. Hopefully, the insides will be better than the outsides.

Everyone,

May be a good start here. I have a 2002-D showing on the end of a roll. More later.

Box #7

So far there is the 2002-D and now a 1964! So, anything else is just gravy.

Just got my 6th box today - 1 1967 40% and 12 2009 NIFCs. I call that a win.

Last box was 3 1967's, 12 NIFCs, a 1988 S and a 1974 S.

Prior to that, my first 4 boxes were skunks.

box 19

3 proofs, tons of nifc

box 20

2 proofs more nifc

box 21 complete skunk

Box 21 was a new pick up bank, I got some of my own coins back, that were from 3-5 boxes ago, good news it is a different bank branch then I get all my other boxes from and I have yet to get my own coins back there, the bad news is the one teller iv dealt with twice is so nice, and I have an order for a single box, next week, she gladly asked if I was coming back next week, before I even said anything, hate to give up that good relationship thats just starting, gonna give it a few more weeks.I dont even have an account there. Oh yeah before anyone says anything I do mark about 2 rolls per box, only old rusty, dingy coins, acetone takes it right off anyway.


I also found a 1984 kennedy, solid gold rim, solid gold back, the obverse is only gold on the head, date and liberty, anyone see this before? I think its a homemade commerative, has almost a plastic like coating on it?

Decided my skunk percentage was feeling really high and looked back at my results to see what has been going on. I have had 47 skunks out of my last 75 boxes. At least that means I found silver in 28 boxes right?

I've had so many skunks in a row that I've lost count. I was going to to tell my bank to stop ordering them, but today I found one 40%er and a 1989-S proof. Whee!

How many 1972-D no FGs have you guys found?

Also, are the weak FGs worth anything?

Thanks!

I haven't found a no FG. I can't imagine weak FGs are worth anything, they're really common.
