Nice haul Bish you broke 1000 on 40%, IS that 79 proof clear s? So whats the deal with the magicians coins? How do you tell they are, are they double heads and tails?Can you tell from rim searching they are there? I basically rim search, pull silver,check funny rims/dark rims, pull bright rims check dates and see of they are proofs or nifc, then just roll all coins over for a quick front and back scan for colored coins, replace what I took and reroll.

I believe the Magician's coins are hollowed out on one side and then another half can be fitted into it so it can be rotated and other coins can be hidden inside it.

i don't really know about the type I/II coins. didn't think I posted one today. the magic coins sound like casino chips, just dull thud sound. I have been successfully selling them on ebay for a good profit in well circulated condition so I grab all of them that I find. I found a double tails the other day but tossed it back, too much damage.

I've found the 1970 D and S roll hunting.
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors...
Roll hunting since '77
Dirt fishing since '72

Amazing work, Bish.

Earle and Chuckster, did I read right? Are you both on the East coast?
I am, as well. Be fun to meet up sometime. Start a CRH club.

I'm pretty sure I found a 1970 and I sold it to a coin shop about a year ago when I didn't know any better. Still not happy.

Bishftl,

Seems you are back in your groove and evading all those killer dumps you were encountering.

Nice work,I'm going to try to get a box. Thanks for all the advice, I search most rolls from pennies to halves. I'm trying to complete my albums. Feeling the Silver fever the last few days though!
