<p>[QUOTE=&quot;khay, post: 1331621, member: 34520&quot;]So, today I went and dumped $977 of yesterdays $1k bag of halves, then I went back to my supply bank and bought the 2nd bag of halves they got for me this week. When they brought it out, I couldn&#039;t help myself... I broke out laughing! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Every other time I have gotten a bag of coins, it has been one of those plastic bags from a counting machine, even when they order them. Today, however, it was a cloth sack - the only thing missing was a giant green $ on the front, and I&#039;d have looked like Yosemite Sam robbing a bank! Lolol... I love it &lt;3 It looked EXACTLY like those cartoon bags of money <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>[ATTACH]152418.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p>They also asked me if I would be interested in $33.50 of mixed dollars and halves they&#039;ve been unable to get rid of for a while. I said sure, thinking what the heck, maybe I will get lucky... lol. Nope, all clad, but taking them off their hands made them happy, so it&#039;s still in the &quot;plus&quot; column in my opinion &lt;3</p><p><br /></p><p>When I opened the big bag, I started doing a quick preliminary edge-search, and started to feel disappointed... I figured it was gonna be a skunk. Shows what I know... lol. </p><p><br /></p><p>1x 90% &#039;64</p><p>5x 40% (forget the dates)</p><p>1x &#039;72s proof</p><p>7x &#039;71d DDR</p><p><br /></p><p>None of the silver looked too great, but they weren&#039;t damaged, and I am happy with the day&#039;s work <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Before work tonight, I managed to get $750 ready to dump so far, but still have to loupe the other $250, as they are possible variety dates.</p><p><br /></p><p>Question - am I the only person who bothers to loupe halves? It seems there are quite a few errors/varieties available in clad halves, that carry at least a SMALL premium. I am thinking of taking DDO and DDR halves to local coin shops, and offering to swap them 1-for-1 for 90% silver halves, or something. Who knows - they may accept <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>On a related note - I am trying to set up a standing order with my bank for 2 $1000 bags every week. I have a good feeling they may do this for me <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
