A box of each.

Today I searched a box of each type of US coin.

The dollars, halves, quarters, and dimes yielded no keepers---except for the occasional Canadians. The dollars were Sacs (and I now know to look for the Cheerios dollars lol!).

In the nickels I found a 1940, a 1941, a 1961 about uncirculated. And I found a 1943 war nickel, the 2nd one I've found this week. I'm really starting to like the war nickels.

The pennies gave me lots of pre-82s (I'm still sorting them), 4 recent Canadians, and 3 wheaties: 1945, 1955, and 1956. I was really hoping to find more wheaties.

Even though just about every box of halves I search is a skunk, I haven't given up on halves yet. There must be some serious CRHers around here, because this city is silverless. Pennies aren't really my thing, but I do enjoy searching them. Nickels, however, have really caught my interest, especially the war nickels.

Happy hunting!

When I can't get halves, nickels are my favorite. Easier for me to see dates and roll back up. I've had pretty good luck finding pre-60s too. War nickels are scarce, but always a surprise. I give them to my son for his books.
 

Nice FB....those war nickels are hard to come by & like Scott said always fun to find one.

Searching a box of each denomination is quite a feat in one day....kudos!
