Update #6: The Ultimate Coin Haul!
Hello fellow YNs and YNH!
This will be the blog with the most non-roll searching finds until my next birthday! I got so many numismatic items, and I can't wait to share them with you. First of all, I got a metal detector AND a pin pointer (Garret AT Pro for the pin pointer)! I look forward to digging up my future collection. I got a TON of blue Whitman folders. I got all the Washington Quarter folders, the first Roosevelt silver dime folder, a presidential dollar folder, and Jefferson nickel folders (1938-1995), and a 20th century type set. The king of all the folders came from my amazing younger brother; it was a Ben Franklin Half Dollar folder, along with 3 very good condition Franklin's! Other presents include a Standing Liberty Quarter for the type set, a birthday proof set (2008), pages for dollar bills and flips, and a box for storing flips.
In other numismatic news, the half dollar box has FINALLY come. In in, I found a pound of bicentennial halfs, and one 40% silver half dollar. I also found a $20 with a 1 for the plate number.
Thanks for reading this special edition update! There will be another on Saturday or Sunday so we can get back to the regular schedule.
Keep collecting,
thatcoinguy.

Nice blog! You got some nice presents.... I have that same exact presidential dollar folder. So your half dollar box was one of the long, yellow, single layered ones? Mine was a brown, short, double layered box. Anyways, what kind of metal detector did you get?

Nice collection you have going. That half dollar box looks like a lot of fun. A 40 percent half is pretty good !

Are you going to put some pics of the opened folders or have you not put in any yet.
