    Well, I didn't get them in rolls but I scored 2 War Nickels! 1943P in decent shape and a 1944P a bit worn down. My first bit of silver in far, far too long.

    That's pretty rare, dude.

    I picked up one box of each cents, dimes, and nickels today. The cents haven't been touched yet, probably just gonna save them for tomorrow... The dimes;

    The nickels were a pretty solid box, despite no war nickels or buffalo's, because ther was a ton of older nickels in there, probably around 3 or 4 rolls...

    And then these beauts... ~7 rolls of uncirculated nickels from the 1960's.

    Alright so this is funny. I only CRH for halves and cents. The other day I was thinking that if I only have a certain amount of luck, I hope I don't find a lot of wheaties in a box, and rather find the motherload of walking liberties or something. Well sure enough I hit a huge box today. My dad and I went to TD Bank for the first time and got 2 boxes of pennies. I opened my box up and it had 2 wheaty enders. When I got home I opened the box and found that it had 30 rolls of 2011. So I put those aside to sell and started opening up the other 20 rolls. The first roll had 8 wheaties, which is the most I've ever had in a roll. The second roll had a horribly crappy 1905 indian head cent, which is the first I've ever gotten, and a very rusty 1943 steel cent, which is the first I've ever gotten. The rest of the box contained 1 more crappy steel cent and 84 more wheaties!!! Every single roll contained at least 1 wheatie. Unfortunately there was nothing in great condition, or anything older than a '34, and only 6 were before '40, but it was still crazy. The total find of 92 wheaties was more than I've found in my previous 10 boxes combined, which is all of my searching, in less than half a box. My dads box also had more than half of 2011 rolls, but he opened up a couple rolls and there were no wheaties.

    Box of BWR cents. 11 wheaties, mostly 40's and 50's, but one beat up 1930. A 1988 broadstrike and a 1986 "one centisimo" from Panama that will go in my 7 year old daughter's coin collection book. Also, another dot on the world map as she didn't have any coins from Panama. (I bought a huge Rand McNally map on Amazon. She puts a dot on every country she has a coin from. Good way for her to learn geography)

    Lower copper than my last "box" of CWR - only about 20-25%.
