$1500 Halves - String Boxes (Where did Brink's get these? I like my Brink's boxes better )
I got 12 String Boxes from my source bank instead of my normal Brink's boxes. 8 boxes were SILVER SKUNKS, loaded with BU 1998-PUs and 2000-PUs! , 3 boxes had 1 or 2 40%ers, and only 1 box had 11 SILVERs. I'm hoping this was only a holiday thing and that I get my nice Brink's boxes again starting this week.
BOX #1 1 Kennedy 40% SILVER Clad - '67
BOX #2 2 Kennedy Clad NIFCs - '06P,'06D
BOX #3 SKUNK!!  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ UPDATED TOTALS ARE NOW POSTED IN THE INITIAL POST OF THIS TOPIC. |

$1,000.00 Halves.
A TALE OF TWO BOXES
Breakdown:
$500.00 - Coin Wrap Inc. box dated 10/05/2009 (I LOVE boxes with this date...this date produced our monster box from late December with (71) - 40%ers.)
(13) 40% - (8)67, (4)68D, (1)69D (1) Clad Proof - 72S (2) NIFC - 02D, 05D
Expected more as 4 rolls had edge silvers but extremely happy with the (13) - 40%. Strangely no 90%'ers again.
$500.00 - Coin Wrap Inc. box dated 12/18/2009 (I HATE boxes with this date...3 straight silver skunks from this date.)
SKUNK - Absolutely nothing.
Cheers,
Jeff
Two or three boxes scheduled for Thursday...hope they are not dtd 12/18!!! |

Neat idea! It could also be interesting to do a ranking by percent of halves that are silver, to see who is getting the best ratio regardless of amount searched. |

I feel like Rodney Dangerfield. My 1 90% half didn't even get me on the bottom of the board.
I really like the percentage idea. I am the leader at 5% right now!  |
If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.

Got the same cool little copper bar in the mail..TY Nate
Well yesterday I rolled the dice and got some boxes of pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters from a special local bank branch that last week when I got a box of nickels, the head teller said they had been there for at least 7 years. I got 17 buffalos out of that box and vowed to return and get some more to see if there were more like that. No deal. Skunked on dimes and nickels and after finishing most of the quarter box, probably those too.
I also picked up two boxes of halves from another bank and got one 1967' which was dirty/well camoflaged. One 2002 NIFC also.
Another box of nickels from that source yielded one war nickel.
I get halves today and tomorrow and will ask if I can order bags of coins. I get the feeling that the guy on the coin roller machine is cherry picking. Who wouldn't unless it was against company policy?
Just a feeling. I would love to know if when I order two boxes, the coin service dumps a bag into the roller to get the two boxes and some cherry picker cleans it out before they turning on the roller.
Having some fun with pennies while all this is going on.
