But due to being sick this week, i ended up "behind schedule". So at lunchtime Friday i picked up a box and started to go through it. One thing i do, is to look at the end coins to see if any silver is easily visible. When i got down to the second layer, lo and behold there was the reverse of a Walking Liberty staring at me.
