Good luck!
You're bound to find some silvers and definitely some foreign coins. Don't forget to post your finds!

Sound like fun!
Most girls wouldn't think so, actually, most guys I know wouldn't like it either. Go figure...

Since your on a coin forum I would think the first thing that would have come to mind for you would be a coin party. Your could use this forum to invite all of us over to look through all those coins for you. Beer, pop, dip, chips, music and flashing lights. And don't forget the Bar-B-Que.
See how much fun coins could be.

lol just carl. I grilled some meat tubes for my daughters 'lunch' if that counts for a bbq. I'll have to plan better and get some invites out next time.

I'm really hoping for a good variety or doubled die out of the the whole lot but I'll have to settle for 11 Wheaties from box 1.
I've not seen more than 3 in any previous box so I'm quite pleased.

Here's some other numbers/info for anyone who's interested:

Rolls were Loomis wrapped and in solid boxes (not the ones with holes on top) but I'm pretty sure Brinks is the only car that delivers to my FCU. (don't know too much regarding these companies)
-Copper 18% or 454 not counting the 82s I haven't weighed
-2 Canadian
Wheat cent dates:
1917 very worn **had to edit to say this is the oldest roll find for me now by a good bit**
1944
1946 S
1950 D
1954 D x2
1955 D
1956 D
1957 D
1958
1958 D

..other than that a few nice keepers as grade would go and a couple minor MADs

I picked up brake rotors. But I also picked up a few rolls of quarters, nickels and dimes.
