2 boxes of halves today:

 

It's been 3 hours... let's see the finds.

 

Sorry, Lon, I posted the teaser because I knew I would be late getting home and now my camera is out of battery...so I will try to post pictures tomorrow. To make a long story short:

from 2 boxes of halves....two forty percenters
from my first five banks....two more forty percenters
from the next bank...an XF 1949 Ben Franklin

I would have been happy at this point, but...

from the next bank 3 CWR rolls netted...30 forty percenters

Now I'm having a REALLY good day at about 5 ounces of silver. But there is another branch of the same bank in the same town. So I go there. They have $250 in CWR halves in the vault so I buy them all. And they are good:

Franklins: 1
90%ers: 9
40%ers: 76

For the day, 2 Franklins, 9 90% Kennedy and 110 40% Kennedy halves. That's 121 silver halves (6 rolls!) totaling just over 20 ounces!

My cell phone is recharged... here is a picture:



If a dream box is 100+ silver coins, this was certainly a dream day. My luck so far this year has been crazy. How much longer can it hold?

 

congrats!

 

Yeah that's a nice haul. Still waiting for mine.

 

WOOOOO HOOOOO!! ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding
extra nice and sweet

 

That's one hell of a find CT. Congrats!

 

Just finished the weirdest box of halves I've encountered: three-40% (2-1967, 1-1968); and, wait for it........ no less than 500 (yes, I said 500) NIFCs. Almost every roll was at least half NIFCs, and some rolls were almost all NIFCs. If they'd been silver, I'd have made CTRollHunter look like a beginner! But, unfortunately, they were just bright, shiny, NIFCs. And the search goes on.

 

Box of BWR Halves...Nothing.

 

Picked up some random coin on my day off yesterday...
1 box of nickels: skunk.
1 box of dimes: skunk.
About to start a box of cents.

 

Dude! You're a bullionaire!

 

Got this in change, not coin roll hunting. I didn't want to start a thread just for these two so posting it in this thread.

Finally found a 2009 dime. The other is a high grade 1982-D dime. The mintage figure is high for the '82 but I read on this forum recently that high grade 1982 dimes have good premium. Is this true or do I throw it on the back-to-the-bank pile?

 

That dateless Walker would make a good ball marker at the golf course.

 

Three boxes of Loomis halves (I think I got another collector's leavings):
54 NIFC's, most of them in the first box, mainly 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. ONE 40%
I think I will throw the NIFC's back.

Boxes two and three really sucked.

 

Box of cents, 30 wheats, incuding a F 1912 cent
8 dollars in loose halves at the bank, 1 1968 D.
Have been out of the game in a while, so it was nice to see some silver.
Also my mom found a 1951 dime in her change so that was cool!

 

4 boxes of halves after work:
4x90%ers
28x40%ers
1 1976S 40% Proof

 

$10 BWR nickels - nothing too exciting - 1940, 1954-D, 1958-D

$5 BWR pennies:
1916-D, 1923 (possibly cleaned but looks great in the light), 1940, 1944, 1950, 1954 (red-brown)
2009 (Capitol Building)
1983 Bermuda cent
4 Canadians
also found lots of AU/BU 1979-D's. Like someone unwrapped a roll then dumped them.

 

Doesn't top CTRollHunter's week...but I'm happy with it

 

14 Wheats out of a box of pennies
