<p>[QUOTE="WillieSutton, post: 64391, member: 3835"]New member, but doing this for quite some time now. Yesterday, received a very unusual bag, a least for me. Supposed to be all halves (2,000). Contained the following:</p><p><br /></p><p>Silver Kennedys (40% & 90%): 39</p><p>Other halves: not sure yet</p><p>Franklins: 115</p><p>Walkers: 21</p><p>Quarters: 187 </p><p>Dimes: 24 </p><p>Nickels: 29</p><p>Pennies: 111</p><p>Foreign coins: 4</p><p>Carwash token: 1</p><p>14 K gold plated medal: 1</p><p><br /></p><p>All appear to be in decent circulated condition. No collection pieces. The "other halves" are all over the place on dates with some being rather recent.</p><p>All the non-halves appear worth face only.</p><p><br /></p><p>Seems obvious the the fed bank, armored car/coin service, and local bank had not checked this bag. I'm not sure of the face value in there when I received it. May have to count it to settle up with the bank when I return it. In any regard, it's was quite an experience.

No collection pieces. The "other halves" are all over the place on dates with some being rather recent. All the non-halves appear worth face only.
