Gary, frfore you turn that bucket upside down, get a couple 2-1/2 gal buckets to scoop the coins into. That way your load will be distribuited equally. Mark which one is the 'bottom half", and then"read the lst page fiirst"!
While you are reading this, PM me with your address.
Dick

Well we decided on a price and i think i got the better deal. I started with the first 150.00 batch and pulled some very nice stuff out of the bottom of the bucket. I have found from 44-92 P,D and S from AU-BU the wheat's are not close to au but the 59-92 are like they just came from a roll. so far about 5-7 rolls of 1970 S. and a few of 72 mostly D and S also BU a lot of the zincolns are getting verdigris on them but a lot of them are nice too. maybe 4-5 rolls of 92 D so far. I have almost wore Chucks book out the second edition anyway I dont know as much about these things as i thought i did.
the fun is on

Gary, I am glad you are doing something, finally, that gives you pleasure" It has been a rough road, getting here, but you both are back where you belong, HOME! I hope you find a few '09-SVDB's! It would help you recover some of the losses you suffered with the stolen coins, etc. It will take you a whiile to go thru all of them, but you will be pleased with what you find, I'm sure. One doesn't find that kind of deal very often. ENJOY!
Dick

how's this for a cool find. I don't know much about these grease filled coins but they are fun to find. this one is close to BU i think. the rim is much higher than the rest of the field and all is gone on both sides

I'll have to take your word on that. I barely see the memorial building.

On a weak strike or low pressure strike the outside of the die doesn't form the ring you see near the rim.
