I haven't done any CRH'g in a long time but went through a box this evening.
The first roll had a 1967 40%. I had exceptions of several silvers.I ended up with a second 1967, a 2006, a 2016 plus a 1980 panama Medio Balboa at first glance I thought it was silver but it's clad.

not getting the 2006 dime...is this silver? or what makes it special? I am so dumb to this but it looks interesting.

Halves, not dimes! LOL it is an NIFC.

And Pan4AU...the Balboa is copper-nickel blend, not a clad coin...KT was fooled early on by these also, but looked it up to find the composition. KT likes the deep relief on these coins! Much better than on Kens.
 
box 2

I went through box 2 today and got one 64d and one broken die. I started searching box 3.., had to stop.. hurting too bad.. have ruptured disc in neck.. so far I've found several NICF's and a couple of proofs. I hope to finish that box tonight.

Welcome back to the hobby. :grin: Nice scores, the Panama coin is really interesting. :D
Thanks, I haven't been able to do any dirt fishing so I thought I'd buy a few boxes to search to occupy my time while off from work.

Thanks for the info.. it just looked like clad on the edge.. I did see where one sold on Fleaby for a couple $ and another about twice that.. worth hanging onto

Nice finds! I always wanted to try coin roll hunting but never remember when at the bank :laughing: congrats!
I have to call them to get them to order them. Probably order some more for after Christmas
