Another Good One!

This week has been good to me, an Indian Head, a 1909 VDB, a Liberty Head, and now a Walking Liberty!

Yesterday afternoon and last night I went through 2,000 half dollars (2 boxes). In them I found four 90% halves (including one 1945 Walker), eighteen 40% halves, one proof half (1995S), and one mint set half (2002P). The Walking Liberty half is great, a bit worn, but it's my first and I've been looking forward to finding one ever since I started searching halves. Now I just need to find a Franklin half. Here's a picture of the type.



I also searched 2,720 hand rolled quarters. They produced nine Canadians, two US nickels, and one French franc. I've been searching a lot of hand rolled quarters lately and they just haven't produced. I might switch back to boxes soon. I'm not sure why they'd be any better, though.

Lastly, I looked through 16,950 dimes (6 boxes and some hand rolled). It was so-so. In the bunch I found eight silver Rosies (1946, 1947, 1952D, 1953D, 1961, 1962, 1964, 1963D) and thirteen Canadians.

The next time you call remember to tell me what a proof coin is.
