Okay, I went to two completely different chains today in two completely different parts of my area.

Both banks happened to have $40 in CWRs. One teller even told me hers had been gone through and that the guy who brought them in said something about weighing them.

I happened to notice the rolls were all in the same, older style wrappers and that all the wrappers were identical despite them being from two completely different banks. So, it seems I have a person dumping $40 increments at different banks in the area.

BTW, all rolls were duds in every possible way.

If you are in the Asheville, NC area and dumping, please speak up so I will not be wasting time going to your dump sites.

Went by the bank today and the teller had $11 in loose halves for me. As she stacked them I noticed the glint of something better than normal!! When I got to the car and looked through them I found a 1968-D and a 2005-P. There was not much interesting in the other $10. Still looking for those last few hole fillers!

I'd recommend a USB microscope. They're really cheap but work well. There are a bunch of forum postings about them.

Oh, I am a happy guy today. A bright, beautiful, shiny 1964 in todays box. Been a long time since I've found a 90%er.

Other than that, four NIFCs.

I'm so much more easily pleased than I used to be!

you suck....lol... nice finds man



14 box total this week( 6)40%...........8 today skunked(THATS WHY I SAID THAT CHUCKSTER).....skunk streak 10 in a row.


I might pull a big move soon, if it doesn't get better next week. I may up my orders to get 24 boxes in one week, and see if that helps, my only problem with that will be with my wife, and also getting the dumps set up.

Good luck with your box increase.
