Hi All. I mainly search halves but recently expanding my coin hunting denominations. I started six weeks ago and finally decided to create an account and post some of my finds. I also have Harris folders and am trying to fill them up though my hunting.
My first box of halves on Aug. 29 yielded two JFK 90% and I was instantly hooked in CRH.
I got my second box on Sept. 6 and was so excited to find my first 40% and walker.
My third box on Sept 13 gave me another walker.
My forth box was a total skunk which was disappointing because I was on such a roll. That made me want to search dimes (1) to fill in my needs for my folder and (2) to hopefully find something. I ordered 2 boxes of dimes for the following week in addition to my normal halves box.
My fifth box of halves was another skunk but luckily I had two boxes of dimes! I found 2 rosies and 2 Canadian 80%. I found many non silver Canadian dimes, which made me annoyed because I thought they were more silver but I knew going in that would happen. Anyways I did not order more dimes because I just have one left to finish my folders.
I got my brothers addicted to CRH as well. My little brother searches pennies and has been very lucky finding almost a roll in four boxes and my older brother searched nickels. My older brother got tired of it and decided to stop after his third box and didn't finish the third box so I bought it from him this week.
I found 5 silver nickels and was skunked again from my halves. I did find a golden looking JFK not sure what it is or if it is special. I decided to up my order to two boxes a week of halves and 1 box of nickels. This coming week and next week I will do 4 boxes each week in hopes of finding something and then go back down to two boxes.
Anyways, I will start posting my finds weekly from now on. Oh I found 2 40% JFK from tellers unwrapped in the last few weeks too.
