Crzyness today(8/1/2013) 8 boxes of nickels and 2 boxes of half dollars(decided to start on halves this month)
Ok the nickels:
17 Silvers(12 in one box a new record for me), 6 Buffalos(including a 1921S that I didn't even know was worth big money till I looked it up), a Bunch of goofballs including a namco gaming token(been wanting one since I've started), a 1999 proof, and a bunch of 56 and olders and pre 2000 BU's
Can't wait to see what tomorrows 8 boxes will bring(prob nowhere as good as today's lol)

On my halves:
8 NIFC
1 40%er (1968)
1 90%er (1964)

I am SUPER STOKED on all these coins I am searching daily!!! I will be doing 8 boxes of nickels EVERY DAY and 2 boxes of Halves 5 days a week for a grand total of 10600 dollars a week.... I may slow down on the nickels once I have a roll of each year and mintmark of each silver.
On a side note, I am running short on room with all these boxes in my place... I may have to start breaking them down flat instead of stacking them up like bricks although they look really cool all stacked like I have a bunch of money lol. Happy hunting everyone :)

Today's box yielded a 1929p buffalo. That makes 101 buffalos from roll searching.

101 isn't that many buffalos to find singly.... I just did a count on my buffalos and I am at 35 found since I started and I started doing nickels the last week of May..... Of course I do a ridiculous amount of boxes every day

CoinCbass,

We have never found a dump roll of buffalos. My son found a dump roll of silver dimes once though!

I've done another 3 boxes of nickels since the first. My finds aren't quite as exciting as some that I've been seeing on here lately, but I'm still happy with them.

Box # 2
1941
1942
1946-D
1946-S
1947-D
1949-D
1951-D
1951-S
1952-D
1952-S
1953
1953-D
1954-D x 2
1956
1957-D x 2
1969-D x 2

Box # 3
1940-D
1941 x 2
1946
1947
1949-D
1952-D
1952-S
1954-D
1955-D
1957-D
1958
1958-D
1959-D x 3

Box # 4
1941
1945-P Silver
1948-D
1949
1952-D
1954-D
1955-D
1956
1957
1958-D x 2
1959
1959-D x 2
2001 Panama

These other denominations are fun to fill my time while I wait for my boxes of halves to come in. So far I've had decent luck with all the denominations I've tried. I've found plenty of wheats, several silver War Nickels, several silver dimes, haven't tried quarters yet, plenty of 40% halves (but no 90% from rolls yet), and I've found several Ikes at different banks in my search for more halves.

I do about 4-8 boxes worth of nickels a week and I haven't found a buff in weeks. I did find a complete roll one time. I have found about 70 or so, but I don't think there's a lot in my area. Young population.

That is great. It feels good to be able to complete something by just searching roll.
