[QUOTE="Aggiecollector, post: 824218, member: 19545"][b]Totals since July 2009[/b] A few have asked so here are my totals for searching halves. My kids and I have now searched 106 boxes ($53,000). I do not have an exact count on the customer coins/rolls but I would guess maybe another $7000-$10,000 if you add up all the rolls found in banks. 18 Walker Half Dollars 18 Franklin Half Dollars 51 1964 Kennedy Half Dollars 452 1965-1969 Kennedy Half Dollars 1 Washington Carver Commemorative 1 Olympic Baseball Commemorative (perfect) So 89 - 90% half dollars 452 - 40% half dollars 541 - Silver halves total Others: 31 Proof halves 161 Modern halves (2002-2009) I found over half my total (278) in my first 25 boxes including 51 of the 90% halves. I have had 3 runs of double digit shutout boxes since the first 25. I attribute this to myself and two other searchers in the area cycling through mostly the same coins over and over since September. Almost every box I search is a Brinks box with just a few String and Son's mixed in from time to time. best box 77 silver halves 2nd best box 33 silver halves best non-box find: 1 customer roll with 14 silver halves including 2 Franklins and 2 1964 2nd best One teller saved 3 Franklins for me My totals are decent but here in my part of the country we have not had near the success of others in finding Walkers and Franklins as I know some have found 50 or so in week. Any questions, let me know.. Erin[/QUOTE]
