I took a bit of a hiatus from coin collecting but I'm back! My grandpa (who got me into coin collecting)passed away a year ago on the 21st. We used to talk a lot about coins and I got the itch again.

I went to a new bank and got my first ever bag of coins (I've only done boxes prior to this). Within the first 15 minutes, I hit silver (yes in a penny bag)! I found a 1/10th oz silver bullion. Only with a few bucks but it's always fun to find silver. I also found 7 Wheaties (42S, 44, 53D, 56D x3, 57D) and a few Canadian cents. They're a few upgrades for my books too, but those are the highlights.

One of those wheaties needs some Verdicare soon, but the rest look pretty decent. Nice red Canadians! Finding silver -- a bonus! Yea!

Hope your good luck continues.
Rest in Peace

You're fortunate to get a bag, around here answer's always no can do, boxes only, and some banks not even that, sad.

Verdi-care is the successor to Verdigone. Both were developed by BadThad.
