    Hey slipperysocks, on your rotated dies, did you check to see if they were magic coins?

    I agree. But I’ve decided this week if I’m going be accused of lying about the number of coins I search I’m going BIG! So this week I shall search 1 million half dollars in a five day period. I feel I can accomplish this inside of a day and a half. I’ll go ahead give you my results

    3001-90% JFKs
    2700-Franklins
    1-Walker
    75-Barbers

    14-rolls of proofs various years
    14-Mint condition NIFC

    Too many to take pictures of but I’m sure it will be very hard work (Sara off)

    Yes. We have found 3 magic coins(not pictured). One is a two headed coin I cannot get apart with my hands but the machine line is evident and it has the hollow sound.

    Will any of the NIFC's be 1970 or 1987? Those are the best.

    How are going to have 2,000 boxes of halves delivered to your home? Are you picking them up yourself? That is about 50 thousand pounds = or -. If you are unloading them by yourself, that will take at least a day or more? Good Luck please let us know, I have searched over a million dollars worth and it took me four years to reach that and I only pulled 1300 90%ers. So you have a huge goal, sorry I think you will fall very short of those numbers. LOL

    @Sam Carter I think you should just up your prediction and assume the $500,000 contains $499,999.50 of silver. And more than 1 Walker....you're not dreaming big enough!

    Got my week's boxes today. These are the enders from 3 of 6 boxes. Looking forward to possibly beating @Sam Carter this week :)

    Well I just did the first 3 boxes that didn't have any enders. They were in quarter boxes and "Halves" was written in sharpie. Only pulled a lone 64P out of those. My son gets home from school in a few minutes and then we will attack the last 3 boxes with all the enders :)

    I for one is guilty. So sorry. I give my finds away. You have been honest. We know that. We're jealous scum bags to wrong you about your search habits. Stay the course. You only have to answer to one higher authority. God bless you. Save me a 64d

    I can't compete with all these wonderful half dollar hoards this week. Only got a lowly box of nickels to go through, although I do have some halves on order.

    Nickel box #13 is in the books. I seem to have hit a buffalo drought as I haven't found any in several boxes now. Also, no foreign interesting stuff to count (I don't count the handful of Canadians as they are too common). The best this box had to offer was a single 45-D war nickel.

    Prewar: 3
    WW2 Ag: 1
    Postwar & 50's: 16

    No new "previously unfound" date/mint combos. All-in-all, a rather uninspiring box. I should finish my current cent box tomorrow.
