Well, I did 24 boxes this week, it's been really busy and still is, we're getting ready for my sons Pine Wood Derby Race today for Cub Scouts later. I didn't get to do a lot of pics this week but here is what i got. Now 19 of the 24 boxes were skunks ( 1 box only had 1 40 in it) and I scored some from teller trays and CWR's. Also 23 of the boxes all had my marked dump coins spread all through them, ( I marked about $6000.00 worth yellow months ago) and the one that didn't had someone elses marks on 95% of the coins in it ( including proofs and very nice nifcs) Red blob of paint on Kennedys ear), So I ended up with 6 90's and 16 40's from the 24 boxes and 1 90 and 3 40's from teller tray/CWR's, for a total of 21 40's and 7 90's. I did get a 69 proof ( which looks bad in the pic, but is really allmost perfect, I just can't get a good shot) 1 Walker and 1 Ben in the mix. 1 of the boxes had 3, yes 3 enders ( in the first pic) and only gave up 6 40's, what a disappointment! Next week I'm going to try and line up 1 10 box order from a new branch( just once) to see if that helps me out any, that will make a 34 box week for me ( tax money came in yesterday for the 10 extra boxes) and those will be extra. I know I'm probably leaving something out, I'm trying to post this really qwik.
I'm getting tired of saying maybe next week will be better but, maybe next week will be better. HH, Maverick

Total miles driven this week was a little less at 278=' roughly 66.00 in gas.

90's =7
40's =21

Nice man, silver proofs are always nice... Crappy skunk streak though, ouch!!

My week started real slow, then got a good box to make up for it all...

I have 35 boxes ordered for next week... yikes! lol

HH
 

Give it time buddy.. It will turn around for ya.. That box with 3 enders would have really pissed me off..
 

I'd be happy with that week, I am not sure my dump banks would be though HAHA
Thanks for sharing, I love the pictures... and that 69s proof is really nice! Just a little tip in case you didn't know, when dealing with proofs, try and grip the edges with your fingertips so the oils from your skin do not get on the proof surface of the coin :)

Some AG is better than no AG..

As everyone always says, It all adds up. :icon_thumright:
 

Maverick, way more than my budget can handle, but still very nice score.....my max is one box per week, tied in with 10-20 rolls...
 

I didn't make a note of it in my log, but I got thousands of halves with the red marker on Kennedy's ear this week, too. Who has the time to mark so many halves in this fashion?
 

Hey guys, sorry, I will be busy today most of the day, I'll check in later. Sorry to those I usually on your threads, last 2 days have been a little crazy here, I'll check in later tonight most likely. HH, Maverick.

Yes, I know right? That had to take some serious time to do, he was probably pissed at all my yellow halves, lol. I had several nice proofs he ruined and NIFCs too, I only marked crap coins, nothing nice.
 

Mav... decent scores...! Yet to find a Walker... or an ender, lol....! Good luck at the derby....! My son managed to win 1st place, barely...!

Out of the 4 boxes we got from one bank yesterday, approximately 99% of the coins in all 4 boxes were marked with the red dot. I am asking the same question....who has that kind of time? Plus we were short a total of $4 between all 4 boxes.

Lol, nice! The yellow one was last years car ( it was first place!) everyone was suprized, it weighed excactly 5 grams and was a rocket, the blue one is this years ( Im racing his old one in the parents race this year) I'm going to set the wheels now, had to wait for some touch up paint to dry, our little girl decided she was going to do some paint work of her own with a marker when we weren't looking, lol. HH, Maverick.

Hey, I was just thinking of you a few days ago, I know, the damn Brinks boxes were killing me with the damn shortages, seems we were paying a fee for the boxes allready, lol. Thats allright, Mr. red ear is getting ready to search my dumps here real soon, lol. HH, Maverick.
 

Hi Maverick,
Hang in there. I feel a "dream" box coming your way soon. "It's out there...trust me."
Best of luck,
rileyboy and "Riley"
 

You did alright this week. My 36 produced only 2 40s. Ouch!!!!
 

WE WON THE DERBY!

Well, we won the Pinewood Derby:laughing7::laughing7::laughing7:, here is a pic of my son's car in the lead and a pic of the time 2.48 seconds and a pic of the Rice Krispy Treat cars we made for the kids ( after half of them were eaten). HH, Maverick.

Thanks Rileyboy, thats what keeps me going ( as all of us) the hope of that elusive "Dream Box", thanks for posting :). HH, Maverick.
 

I find tons of red ear marks in Oklahoma also Mav.
 

Humm. Red ear marks. Are they just a dot of red sharpie in the ear? I got a few dozen in my last box or so here in Michigan.
