<p>[QUOTE="vintagemintage, post: 2268849, member: 75988"]Just stopped at a bank I don't usually go to for rolls of halves because there were none at my other banks. The teller produced 2 rolls of halves and right away I could feel my adrenaline pumping; These were the $20 rolls that I rarely see, and the brown paper looked very old and brittle. The teller told me that an old lady that's been banking there for years just cashed them in moments ago, and that she was thinking of buying them for herself but wasn't quite feelin' it. I SURE WAS!! I just got them home, opened them and slid the coins out and all I saw at a glance was silver in both rolls, JACKPOT!!!!!!!!!!</p><p>I haven't even looked in detail at the second roll yet, gotta stop trembling! Results of the first roll: 1ea 63-D Franklin, 3ea 64-D, 1ea 65, 1ea 66, 19ea 67, 10ea 68-D, 2ea 69-D and 3 1971-D's These 2 rolls have all the signs of having been put away since around 1971. Most of the silver is UNC or AU, and the 71-D's gotta be MS-65 or better, one of which has some doubling on Kennedy's ear (not sure if that's significant, but...) </p><p>After a break and some blood pressure meds, I'll take a closer look at the second roll, I guessing I'll find similar results <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
