<p>[QUOTE="Hellofthenorth, post: 1179183, member: 30988"]New here and have only been searching for a couple weeks. I got a 1954 Washington Q back in change and knew it sounded different and then it all started. I like investing and like to buy oil and gold through my 401k. With a 10 month old daughter I figured I'll start to collect silver coins for her since you could buy an ounce for less than $50 a month ago...Wish my parents did that for me when I was a kid. Any way...here are my finds. $60 in halves-nothing, and no one in my area had more than a couple in their teller trays. I always buy whatever they have but always came up skunk. I then cash them in and bought dimes as from reading they have better odds of silver compared to Quarters. I scored two Roosie's out of $60. I then cashed in $37.50 of assorted coins we had around the house and asked for halves from a teller I had never been to before, but I had asked that bank and took all they had a week earlier. She said how many do you want, I said I'll take all $37.50 in halves. She took out 4 rolls and dumped one out on counter to make my $7.50 in change and I heard the sound of silver. I quickly pulled out some cash and said, I'll take that whole role please. Went out to the car and looked through the roll, it had like 5 40% in it. I went back in and asked that same teller if she had more halves. she said I have one more roll, I took that as well and came out with 49 40% all from 1967 and 1968. 49 out 100 coins were 40% silver! Since them I have searched $80 in halves that i found and all skunk. I think they are someonelse dumps. I have been searching dimes too and found 2 more Roosie's along the way. Searched $12.00 in nickles and found a 1942P</p><p>Maybe $500 searched so far combined</p><p>49 40%</p><p>4 Roosie </p><p>1 War Nickle[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
