A good day.
Fed orders around here really suck. The scores are at small banks where folks have turned in their collection.
*Making note to do drive bys at small banks over near where Dan lives* 
5 rolls of Bank wrapped dimes today.. got my 1 standard silver per lot.  |
If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.
Let me see if I understand this? If you cross the North Korean border illegally, you get 12 years hard labor; the Iranian border illegally you are detained indefinitely. If you cross the US border illegally, you get a driver’s license, a social security card, welfare, food stamps, free health care!

damn fb - that's a lot of silver for one box. Rolls of 90%s sell for about $120 on ebay, so your box was probably worth an extra $200 or so after adding the silver value. And that doesn't take into consideration any potential numis premium for the walkers. Might be the best overall score of the year so far.
Also, I just finished up another box of halves last night. Another skunk. My fifth box of 09, and my fourth skunk. I've been skunked more in the past month and a half than in all of 2008. I may start ordering from a different bank next week. |

Good to see the Silver Santa is still making an occasional visit to one of our members. Congrats fb101!!!
mingus.. now that you have worked through all the junk at that bank, you have finally worked down to the good stuff. Just 10 more boxes and maybe you can strike silver too.
slickeast.. the 69-S is only 40%.
*Lives about 25 miles from Danfino*.. need to get out and buy more halves at the other end of the canyon. |
If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.
