went to the bank this morning to just see if the had any halves. I got $13 of halves and found 1 40%. This was my 1st hunt for halves.

 

box of halves - a '66 40%er
box of dimes - a '52D roosie

 

Stopped at a CU that is not part of my normal route. One cwr of halves... 2 40%. I'm on a short hot streak.

 

The other day, a dozen or so rolls of quarters. Two I needed. America the Beautiful New Mexico, D. And ATB Puerto Rico, P.
Unusual to get the P before I get the D, as here in Los Angeles, the Ds are the usual firsts. Only the third time I've ever had this happen.

Nice finds everyone...I've been laying low. Did 5 boxes this past week and got one lonely 40% half. Right now I'm down at the beach.

Merc - good cache their brother! I'll let ya know if mine works out.

 

10$ halves 2 90% silver 17 40% silver

 

So let me get this straight...You found $10 in halves (20 coins) and 19 of them were silver?

 

irish2ice i got 1 roll of halves and yes thats what i found:]]]]]]]]]]]

 

I am CONVINCED all the banks in my small area know to look for silver now. The last silver half I found was a 1967 and it was found in $1.50 loose. The lady hands them over, checking them as she does and goes "Oh! A 1967!" and I go "Oh that is great! I need that for my collection!" and she goes "I bet you do...perfect" in a sarcastic tone. Also, since I have started searching halves I have only found $2.50 face. Granted I don't do boxes because I don't have the funds, you would think more would have surfaced by now.

Anyways, congrats to ALL on your awesome finds!

4 boxes of dimes; a ton of 2012's, 2 mercs and 4 roosies.

 

I found this roll searching awhile back ,I took it to my coin shop and they said it was a die break . I think its cool and the first that Ive found CRH.

 

Also , I traded a roll of 40%'s + a little cash towards these commem's . I'm happy trading 40%'s for AU/BU commem's because these you're typically not going to find CRH (in higher grades) .(I posted these pics awhile back in the "aquisitions" thread but I thought I'd share my purchase with you guys to see if anyone else trades "junk" silver they find for coins with more numismatic value rather than intrinsic.)

 

Same here, and I"m not even in a small town. It seems most tellers know about silver these days.

 

Two boxes of dimes - 2 roosies, 1 Merc.
