Yes, it is listed in my post that you quoted. I take the bulk of the halves (along with the cents and other coins that I might have searched) to my own bank as they have a free coin counter. I then get 5 $100 bills from my bank and go to one of the other banks in the area that orders half dollars for me and start all over.

Wow, my roll is continuing.

After that great box of halves last night, I flew to Memphis this morning for a few days on business. After being dropped off at the hotel, I had about an hour before my first meeting so I walked across the street to the bank and they had $29 in halves. I bought them and found a 1961 D Franklin. Wooohooo.....keep 'em coming!

I LOVE finding silver.

Yup,
I did. 1914-S in g-4 condition. Blew my mind!

From $ 20 in nickels this week:
1940
1941
1947
1948
....Nothing much to brag about. I notice a lot of people are finding cabin cents. Around here (North Central ILL) there seem to be plenty of formulative years in circulation, but I haven't seen a single cabin cent yet

My mother is an English teacher, which is why I almost committed suicide halfway through.
