    Hope they go as well as the first three. I was curious, because as I've been reading through older posts on this thread I saw someone mention recently that they were pulling some strings with a Brinks contact to pull silver from circulation...I'm not sure how much water it holds, or even with the sheer volume of coins how it would really affect you or I. As I've only had 1x 40% from 3 Brinks boxes now, I thought I'd ask. Guess it's just bad luck =D

    Congrats on the finds, and welcome! It's an addicting hobby.

    I wasn't as lucky today...Was in a nearby town shopping for a new dining room table. Stopped at 4 banks on the way, garnishing a grand total of 2 halves. Neither silver =(

    Welcome Beef!!!

    After 5 shutout boxes in a row, I was shutout from boxes! My banks didn't order as they should have, so I had no halves to look through. So, I got a box of dimes and 5 rolls of nickels:

    Dimes: no silver, and a few 2009 p
    Nickels: Only one older than 1960 (1947d)

    Not a good day for searching.....

    Wow! Neat finds. Now if I can just find those old Indy's in my rolls that'd be neat too.

    It was pretty hot here today so we went to Dairy Queen and I got a '55 Wheatie in my change. Not too bad shape.

    Nickels

    With halves running dry I went for a box of nickels. First ever. Found 10 1968-1970 S nickels. 2 war nickels 1942 P, 1943 P. 34 pre-1960 nickels.

    Fun to go through.

    bag of unsearched wheats PART 1 OF 4

    I rarely post in this thread but I finally got a decent bag of wheats off of eBay with a nice mix from the teens through the fifties.
    I found my very first RPM out of this bag so far.
    Here are some oddities I have got out of this bag so far.

    out of this same bag of unsearched wheats part 1 of 2

    Out of this same bag of unsearched wheats my Lincoln Wheats collection is starting to come together. I was able to fill alot of holes and seriously upgrade some of the existing coins. Check these before and after pictures.
