That was me!

I still can't figure out why you have not been able to find a 72P 1DO-001

I'm in Northwestern NJ and I've found, at last count, well over double digits on these. I just found another one a few months ago.

*What I can't figure out is why I have not been able to find not one 1995P LMC DDO-001*

Does anyone else find tons of 1974D DDO's? I'm wondering if I should post a couple just to make sure I'm not looking at the wrong thing or something. I've compared picks and they look like the classic "RUS" doubling. I've also noticed heavy doubling in the 9 (or maybe 4). I seriously have found a bunch. It's gotten to the point where I toss back some that are in bad condition. I did keep one that has a hole drilled through it and another that was marked by a fellow CRHer, just because it's funny to me.

@Chuckster - thanks for the reminder of your CCF name! You still finding them is a mystery to me. I am near Gettsyburg so have to wonder why this area is devoid of them?
Owasokie - it sounds like you are finding the right thing - the 1974 and 1972 are hard to miss. And I beleive mine are also doubled on the 9 and 4 - although I have only found 2 of them. One is in GREAT shape and the other is circulated pretty well. But even the circulated one was hard not to pick out b/c the letters are so much thicker in RUS.

And if I were you finding all those 74DDOs. I think I would put together a roll of them and sell them on ebay - I bet you would make a killing.

SDcoinguy - just do a sold items listing on ebay:

2 66
1 67

It definitely feels like it's drying up. I'm usually pretty positive,
but man, out of maybe the last 16 boxes, it's really gotten slim.
The boxes all look new, which tells me they are recently packed and so are probably dumps, which they certainly feel like. Today was different, I got my 1 weekly box from bank 2. It was pretty dumpy, but I did find one lone '67. Better than the last few boxes from bank #1.

Have we glutted the market?

@Earle, what stereoscope do you have?

2 boxes:
1- 2003-S proof
1- 1970-S silver proof
1-1966 silver
1-1969-D silver
3- NIFC's

Is the 70-S 90% or 40% silver?

Today I was thinking I "I wish I would find one of those trick/magician coins..... you would think with all the coins I've searched........" Well now I wish I would have thought, I hope I find a whole box of walkers.....

So I found my first trick coin today, I was searching for my marks on the coins I marked a few weeks ago, LOTS OF MARKED COINS!! but none that I marked. I held a roll in my hand and let them drop one on the other into my other hand then check the other side. I heard one of them thunk like it was hollow, I dropped it on the table and it didn't ring or bounce.

Trick coin
68
99-s proof

4 more boxes thursday and 12 for friday, so should hit 20 boxes this week.
