I've been tempted to go after an unsearched lot on eBay, but the cynic in me says they are probably anything but unsearched. I love the photos...
Other posters have said it well. I agree. Buy what you like. I have been collecting on and off for 30 years or so and have completed one set in...
Excellent finds, I'm jealous! In the past I've had rolls similar to what you've described, but I can't really come up with an explanation. In...
I searched 50 rolls of halves last night and got 5 silver coins: two '67s, two '68s and a 1949-D Franklin in about EF40. That was the first...
I know they will- or at least in my case. They do it for me every week. One bank branch I use regularly is very, very cooperative and has...
Ah, but see, she didn't remember you as the "crazy guy" who wanted the pennies. You had to tell her! LOL. It must be a universal amongst bank...
I was waiting in line at the bank today and spotted a 40% silver Kennedy half in the teller's plastic change tray. I asked her if I could buy it...
I'd keep them. Maybe I'm a just another magpie, but a $5 profit per roll just doesn't seem worth it to me. Perhaps in a few years that profit...
Yeah, true. I'm set to pick up another 50 rolls tomorrow, but my luck over the past couple of weeks has been terrible. I searched 125 rolls last...
Searching 125 rolls of Kennedys this week yielded one 1964 and two 1968s.
So funny. I get the same thing when I go for halves at a couple of branches I visit irregularly. I went to both of them yesterday and got the...
I picked up 75 rolls of halves today. I went through about 35 rolls without finding anything noteworthy- until I opened roll number 36. It had...
You should be aware that eBay and PayPal are owned by the same company. Yes, you can arrange to have PayPal charge your checking/banking...
Silver Surfer, Cool deal! Man, finding those at a bank would definitely make my day! Heck, it would make my month!
Yeah, like you said, the anticipation of the hunt is what keeps me going, and I have been fortunate enough put up some solid numbers. It seems to...
OK, OK, The "hate" comment was a joke, guys. I don't hit the halves as hard as you do, but I am pretty regular with it. I've just been going...
I cracked open a first generation PCGS holder one time and it was quite a job. I had to use a vise, a hacksaw, a large utility knife, a flathead...
OK, here are the more interesting ones: [IMG] [IMG] The rest were Roosevelts, 1948-1964. Nothing too fancy here, but they were sure neat to...
Sure. I'm at work right now but will have access to my scanner some time tomorrow. I'll post a picture(s) of what I found. I should let you...
I don't know if this counts, but..... I love to tell this story. :) About 13 years ago or so I worked in a hardware store. I used to take the...
