After a very long dry streak with no silvers to show for it, I finally had some success. 10 BWRs yielded (3) 40%ers Kennedys, (1) NFIC, (1) 2002-S Proof, & (1) 1991-S Mt. Rushmore Commemorative Clad. Pics of the Proof & Rushmore, they're not golden color, just my camera. Going back tomorrow for the rest of this box tomorrow!
Thanks cpm9ball, it's my iPhone 5. No matter what tone I select, does not look real. Will start using my camera.
If only that coin could talk (mt Rushmore half). How did it find its way into circulation. Quite a journey, no doubt.
So I bought the rest of the box this morning, $400 worth. Saw 1 Little Kender and can't wait to search the rolls tonight. Update coming.......
Update: Buying the remainder of the box paid off. Pictured below is the entire haul from the whole box. The bank still had one box remaining from this shipment so I bought it as well speculating the two were boxed close together at Loomis, hopefully from the same collection dump. I believe it was part of a collection because the 1st Walker, and 3 of the 1968-Ds (2nd row - right) are in great shape. Will go through the 2nd box this weekend and provide another update. I'm intrigued by trends and keep a detailed spreadsheet of where I bought the coins and what type of wrapper (courier) was used. My best luck by far has been with the Gold and White Loomis wrapper. Black and White (Brinks) and Yellow and White NF String wrappers (Brinks) have yielded only a couple of silvers.
Final Update: So I went through the second box ( I call it the "companion" box). It was good and also mixed. I thought I was headed for a monumental number of silvers and then about halfway through the box, the silvers dried up. Still, I was very blessed to find 24 keepers: (1) 90%, (11) 40%, (1) 1974-D DDO, (1) 2007-S, & (10) miscellaneous NIFCs.
