[QUOTE="zerocd, post: 523589, member: 16605"][b]Today I got a jackpot![/b] My habit has quickly progressed and I have 6 boxes lined up this week so far and may get a couple more. Started a month ago ordering boxes but find I can order more than I can handle and I don't know how much that is yet. I went through 3 boxes this AM in an hour, also pulling all perfect rim coins to check on upgrading my coin books. I got skunked, not one silver. This hasn't happened since I started 19 boxes ago. I have averaged 3-4 Kennedy 40 and/or 90%ers per box. If I get skunked on a box, I usually make it up on the next. It's like pulling the handle on a slot machine I'll bet only you never lose. I try and combine my businesses daily trips but I have to go to dump banks which adds time and fuel expense. Well I dis find a bright shiney rim which raised my pulse but still don't know what I got. I think maybe the coin has been chromed possibly. A 1973D. It is brilliant as a Maple Leaf or Sovereign but has circulation marks maybe under the chrome? Well, I remembered the teller said she ordered four boxes and I had only had $1500 on me when I went to pick up the first three. I quickly dumped a $1000 worth and went to pick up box four. Glutton for punishment. The teller asked if I wanted more tomorrow, I said no. I already have two more boxes coming from other banks on Thursday and the three no hitters had me hanging. I had work to do until an hour ago and finally opened the box. I immediately saw two silver coins on roll ends. Uh oh! With the first four rolls, I had 13 silver coins, my average was restored and I just started! I ended up with 27 40%, 13 90% Kennedy's (64) and a 1937S Walker which went right in my books empty hole. In the four boxes I also found four tubes worth of some key dates to check on upgrading my books. I now regret not getting more boxes ordered from the same place as I know how these run in batches. I will order four more boxes from that bank tomorrow hoping to stay with the batch. Well the gun forums where I live always say "pictures or it didn't happen" so here are some poor photos....... All coins in the "A" are 40% and the "g" has 14 90%ers and the odd 1973D coin. The tubes are the cream of the clad.
