Hello Fellow CRHers,
Following in the famous footsteps of the beloved CRHing veteran mountainman 2, who last year had a wildly popular weekly thread titled "The Search", I will create a similar weekly thread titled "Keepers". Many of us only post about the big stuff (i.e. - SILVER DOLLARS, SILVER HALVES, SILVER QUARTERS, SILVER DIMES, SILVER NICKELS) but not too much about other "keepers" that aren't really worth that much but coins you just have to hang on to nonetheless!
Since I search all denominations (except those crappy gold dollar coins of course) and a good amount of each as well, my weekly keepers are usually many and varied and each go in their proper container
. This thread will highlight my weekly searches and overview all of my "keepers". 
Without any further ado, here are my Week #1 Keepers...
Cents ($100 Searched):
[34] Wheats
[18] Pounds of Copper Cents (I hand sort for keepers first then use my Ryedale to sort the copper from the st-zincs)
[1] '74D Cent Counter-Stamped with Kennedys Head
[1] 1981 Bermuda Pig Penny
[4] KG VI Canadian Copper Cents ('52 and earlier)
[8] QE II Canadian Copper Cents ('53 - '64)
[116] QE II Canadian Copper Cents ('65 - '96)
Nickels ($80 Searched):
[1] 1937 Buffalo Nickel
[5] Pre '82 Canadian Nickels
Since I don't need any more nickles for my set, I do not keep any pre '60 nickels anymore!
Dimes ($1405 Searched):
[10] Roosies
[2] QE II 80% Silver Canadian Dimes ('58 & '59)
[1] QE II 1968 50% Silver Canadian Dime (Found in garbage can next to the coin machine)
[1] QE II 1988 Bermuda Dime
[1] QE II 1999 Bermuda Dime
A few of my pick-up banks did not have a lot/any dimes to spare this week!
Quarters:
I didn't have the time or patience to look through any quarters this week!
Halves ($5020 Searched):
[1] '64
[3] 40%ers
[1] '72S Proof
[1] '77 Gold-Plated Counter-Stamped Half (1960-1985)
[1] '86 Gold-Plated Counter-Stamped Half (Lincoln's Head on right of Kennedy's Head and 1964-1984 on the left)
I picked up three extra boxes of halves this week but it didn't help at all - halves were really weak this week!
Dollars ($37 Searched):
[36] Clad Ikes
[1] 1776-1976 40% Silver Ike
Tokens:
[1] DAC (Dynamic Amusement Company) Token found in the garbage can next to the coin machine
That's it for this week!
