<p>[QUOTE=&quot;FL_RacingGal, post: 335864, member: 7391&quot;]Wow AgCollector.....you had an awesome find so mine seems quite mediocre in comparison. I once got a roll of proof Kennedys halves and 3 gold plated halves and I posted about it on this site I believe. I can&#039;t remember but none were silver. Still keepers though <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp;&nbsp; Even though my day didn&#039;t come close to yours, I did have a decent day and I&#039;ll post my find so others might get or stay motivated to search.</p><p><br /></p><p>It started out slow with little out there. I only managed to find (2) 90% and (9) 40% but still better than some days. Then came by best stop. I was 5 minutes early for an in-service with a therapist and saw a BoA. I stopped and asked for halves. My teller had none but the teller next to her had $48 worth. He tells that they came from the house of a 90 year old woman who was going into an assisted living facility and her son brought them in. I watch as he pours them out of the BoA bag and I see silver&nbsp; but stay calm and act stupid.</p><p><br /></p><p>I get to my car and go thru them and I believe the son (maybe grandson) was told to keep any coins 1964 and earlier because those were silver but no one told him to keep 1965-1970. I found no 90% halves but got (56) or $28 FV from that $48 total.&nbsp; Not a bad day overall:</p><p><br /></p><p>(2) 1964</p><p>(9) 1966</p><p>(32) 1967</p><p>(19) 1968</p><p>(5) 1969</p><p><br /></p><p>Total Cost = $33.50</p><p>Value 2-15-08 = $176.75</p><p>10.3365 oz = $3.24 per ounce</p><p><br /></p><p>Perfect timing for the Sunday coin show where I hope to sell $70 in 40% and $10 in 90% and get 1/2 oz. of gold. This dealer who buys silver to send off to who cares...LOL....likes likes me because I trade instead of asking for cash so I think I can swing a 1/2 oz. for $477 in silver value which is what my $80 FV is worth. I don&#039;t want to sell him too many 90% because I hate the thought of those being melted down. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>KEEP SEARCHING EVERYONE!!!&nbsp; THERE IS MORE SILVER OUT THERE THAN WE THINK. I&quot;M SURE OF IT!~!~!~!</p><p><br /></p><p>*~*Joey*~*</p><p><br /></p><p>EDIT: Just counted my 40% and I have 180 = 9 rolls = $455.22 which means maybe I won&#039;t have to part with any 90% and maybe I can get 1/2 oz. even up. I&#039;m so excited for Sunday~~[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
