<p>[QUOTE="bigjpst, post: 1141449, member: 21015"]I search a box of halves every week and yes last year or the year before it was not uncommon to find 10 or 11 40% and a couple of 90%. Once I found 140 40% in one box. Now it is usually between 1-4. Last week I found 2 40% and a 1953 franklin. This week just 2 40%. But in the last 2 years I have also found 6 1974ddo, 1 1972 no fg(well I cant see any fg with a 10x loupe) a 1982 no fg , several magicians coins (6 or 7) 2 incomplete planchets(one about 10%, the other maybe 5%) and about a roll and a half of impaired proofs. But I think it's that box of 140 that keeps me searching.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Oh and as far as Vegas being dry, I have family get me a box from Vegas every time I go visit and every time they come to Ca. to visit me, and last time I found 7 40% time before skunked.
