    Funny thing is at five I have to attend a function for the kids school. I will probably be refining my guesses hiding my phone under the desk at school. So if I am sent to detention tonight......

    Not to worry. There will be a longish pause after Roll 2.

    You see, I worked graveyard shift last night, got off at 7:00 this morning, ran errands, and now it's nearly 3:00 PM.

    I have to get up by 10:00 PM to do another graveyard shift at 11:00 PM, so I've got to catch a few hours of shuteye between now and then!

    I'll post Roll #3 in the wee hours, and leave the last two for Saturday.

    Based on my experience with half dollar rolls I'll go with the following.
    90% = 0
    40% = 1
    12 Bicentennials

    Oh! Peekaboo! Do you see what I see there?

    90%=0

    Watching this way is almost as much fun as searching myself!

    But I'll leave the guessing (and prizes) to others. I would've guessed 0 silver based on recent experiences, so I'm counting myself out of the running.

    ROLL 2 RESULTS:

    (1) 90% silver
    (1964-D Kennedy)
    (0) 40% silver
    (6) clad Bicentennials

    CUMULATIVE TOTAL SO FAR:

    (1) 90% silver
    (0) 40% silver
    (8) clad Bicentennials

    (Note Row 2, Coin 4.)

    Kinda gunmetal grey. A tad darker than these pix. But a beautiful sight, for face value! :)

    Thanks. I agree. The hunt is fun enough, but I thought it would be even more fun if I "gamified" it. :)

    Y'all may update your predictions, or post new ones if you're just getting here.

    I'm off to sleep for a while. Roll #3 results will be revealed sometime in the wee hours of Saturday morning. Then I'll leave the last two rolls for the day crew on Saturday.

    Aww, c'mon, @-jeffB, you can do it! We're only 40% of the way through so far. Post your predictions!

    Roll 2 has proven there's silver in them thar rolls... But will there be more? :D

    Now it's time to update your prediction of where we'll be after all the rolls are opened.

    Better late than never...

    2 — 90 percent
    8 — 40 percent
    12 — Bicentennials

    I changed my guess to reflect five rolls.
