...no thanks on the Xs n Os....

But you'll check out my other thread, if i leave them out? It's a shame, I'm a really good hugger. 

Yes, another 1964-D. Yes, boring, i know. But that's 2 in 24 hours. Not bad. 

As much as you all were hoping I'd disappear, you're all SOL. I'm here to stay. Or until i get banned, like on CT.

ouchie wowchie. If you think this is beat up, wait till you see today's best! 

To all my dear friends here at "for the love of silver", and everyone else on the site. As much as I've luv'd posting my silver here, alas, I've started my own "daily finds" thread. I invite everyone to check it out. 

Till then, hugs n kisses, 

CJ73 

The adventure has just begun!

TreasHunt over there, or: The Other Frank

 

I started this name years ago, and forgot about it.

 

Anyway, I have to look for your daily finds.

You told me to call ya, but never left your number.

 

That's the trick. NO ONE has my number. Nothing personal. Glad we can connect here rather than snail mail! When you going to the coin show on 110 next? 

Here you go

I just started it the other day, but it's growing rapidly, as did the one on CT

Not sure I posted that one, but here it is.  I saw it in the teller's coin tray and said, looks like you got a silver quarter, and she said, "yes, want to trade me for it?"  Affirmative!

Incredible! I had an amazing score at my bank about a year ago. I asked if they had any large, older dollars, or halves, and they said someone just cashed some in. "It's a lot, $37.50". No prob, i got it. 12 peace dollars, 2 Morgans, and 3 Franklin halves in the bunch! I almost passed out. I gave the teller a $20 Starbucks card later that day. She couldn't figure out why. Over $440 in silver will do that, lol. Great stuff.

Thanks again for sharing. It's like AA for coins. My name is CJ73, and I'm a coin junkie. Thanks for sharing CJ73. Lol. Have a great night!

Yes, two silver dimes and a week or two before that I got a silver quarter from the bank.

Holy mackerel! And i thought i had some racquet going on! Nice score! Luv to see a pic of the quarter. Is it over in "for the luv of silver"?

Hello, again. 

Found something else. 

more like, heard it. Clunk. But there she is. The D stands for "dang nice coin".

I found these in the coinstar reject bin a week or two ago.

 

Dude, I'm so sorry, i thought that was one dime! 2 silver? That's awesome. 

Saved the most rare for last. 

This is a very rare 2006 North Dakota gold quarter. Minted exclusively in Philadelphia, this beauty's value is unknown. Not many made it off the press, past stringent qc guidelines, AND made it through very tight security. Anyway, i have one now. Yippee! 

Silver! 

yes, another W. 4 this week, so far. 

This will quickly become everyone's favorite, or most hated thread. 

Day number 2

worst first

Here ya are!

Hey @Frank, who are you over on CT? Unless you're the "other frank", then we know each other, quite well. And I've also started a "daily finds" thread here, if that's something of interest, to you. Anyway, glad you found me!

Aaaahhh... thank you @jtryka. Exactly what I'm looking for. Crazy what people leave behind. My local coinstar has been dry for months. Someone has clogged the reject tube with a paper towel, me thinks. But that '53 is saweet! P?D?S? Was there an S that year? Goes to show what i know. But thank you for swinging through and posting. Very cool of you.

Very nice!  CJ.  Good to see you posting again!

@Dano1969 is in the house! Yeah, that 1945 quarter tipped the scale. I have to share! As always, thanks for stopping by.

[1955... 96 years old?... My wife lied to me!  Now I want my old job back!]  

Like i talked back there, I'm no good with numbers, but I'm really really really really REALLY good with words. As they say in France, "I'm good with words.".

I don’t CRH so my contributions to the thread may be light. Everything would be from change. I did get this last week. A true nothingburger here and according to CJox math, only 96 years old.

Ooooo! That is quite old! Pre-cana, i believe. As honored a guest as you are, please, post anything you like. And as always, thanks for stopping by.

Let’s see now. 1945+106=2054?

I knew I slept hard last night, but wow. 

I think there's a term for people that know numbers. Well, I'm not one of those people. I took a shot in the dark on the years, i gotta admit. I'm only like 36 years off, or something like that. 

But, @VKurtB, thanks for stopping by buddy. Means a lot.

No problemo my friend. 

Nothing wrong with a nothingburger, and as nothingburgers go those are some doozies. If I come across one you'll be the first to know. 

Back to work. 

Please, post here! In the meantime, I'll try to keep the masses entertained .

@Fenntucky Mike, thanks for stopping by! Means a lot! 

Nothing special, but it's a '42
