<p>[QUOTE="TexAg, post: 7891949, member: 86167"]Well, I haven’t posted here in several months. Last year I took up arrowhead hunting when it became difficult to get half dollars. But a few weeks ago I tried to buy a partial bag of halves from my bank’s coin machine. I’ve bought bags here in the past, but the new branch manager said, “No - we can’t guarantee the amount in the bag”. I chewed on that for a few weeks and called my favorite teller Ronnie. He sold me bags in the past when he was at a different branch. I told him I would accept whatever the machine counter said was in the bag, no questions asked, and he convinced the manager to let me buy it. $229.50 yielded 2x90%ers & 18x40%ers. There was a lot of trash in the bag and some odd coins of various denominations. I ended up with about $230 all told, indicating that the machine counter was fairly accurate for maybe the wrong reason, lol. I’ve included a pic of one of my latest artifact finds, a Baker dart point (8000-6000 years old). Enjoy!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1361834[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1361835[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
