    Yesterdays 8 boxes... couldn't grab at least 6 as they were in a tellers lockup that wasn't there and another bank dropped the "F" word on me.

    1 - 1 proof
    2 - Skunk
    3 - 1 WLH (Ender) 3 40%ers, 1 '76 business strike 40%er (Ender) This box was kind of a letdown after finding two enders, haha.
    4 - 3 40%ers
    5 - Skunk
    6 - Skunk
    7 - 1 40%er
    8 - Skunk


    Meh day. Did get about $6 in 40% out of teller trays, including... another 40% Bus strike '76. Interesting fact, those were my first two business strike '76 40%ers, I found a proof a while back.

    I also picked up an absolute crapton of CWR from a bank that had over $1k in mixed rolls. Some of it looks quite old, I've got high hopes...

    Went to pick up my 3 boxes of Halves and the teller almost forgot to show me some CWR that she thought may be silver. I glanced at them when she unwrapped them and was speechless, so I quickly snatched them up. A roll full of silver and this is what I saw inside when i got home.

    $10 CWR - 4 - 90%, 16 - 40% :: two of the 90% were good ole Franklin (1959D, 1962D)

    Needed some good luck, since my wife called me earlier in the week to tell me that smoke was coming from the TV and I needed to buy another ($550 later) and the next day my car get broken into...breaking my small back window and taking my backpack (school book, notebook and notes...wtf!). Anyways...was happy to have a some good luck! :)

    I hear you.

    Wish I could tell you Fade...as soon as I came home i had company waiting for me, whom got more than an ear full about the find, and after a few beers wasn't able to keep track as to what was what (just very ecstatic). But knowing your experience and volume, I would not doubt you.

    I did find out after going back to the same bank to ask for more CWR's (anything) that is was a 15 year old kid whom they told that they were silver. He had responded that he didn't care because his grandpa had give them to him and that he had more. I'll be sure to ask each week...in case he returns with more.

    Thanks all ;)
