Check out the Leader Board for SILVER HALVES in the initial post of this topic!! 
THESE ARE YOUR CURRENT LEADERS AS OF 1/5/10-21:25ET!! 
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.
WILL DO! I'll put the data together later this afternoon. 
DATA HAS BEEN ADDED!! SEE WHERE YOU STAND AS OF RIGHT NOW!! |

Thanks for keeping track of silver finds Country!! It's great to see where we all stand. No halves searched today, but this gives me a little more incentive to search more and get closer to the top. |

Country,
Is the rolling count yours or the entire forums?
RealCent poster's SILVER finds to this thread.
My personal totals are at the bottom of the initial post.
Thanks for the clarification. Sometimes, I'm a little slow. I wondered how the heck one person could find, sort and dump so much coinage.  |

Country, thanks for keeping this. Give me incentive to keep better stats on my finds, which was my new years resolution. |

First shot at searching, picked up $510 Halves in CWRs at my local bank. They were happy to get rid of them and asked why I wanted them, a lot were wrapped in the older wrappers, everything was looking good until one of the tellers said I know what you're searching for and I look too. I still searched em and found 1 40%. At least I found one my first time searching, and thats one more than I had this morning!

2- Boxes Halves
1-nice 1967, like new
It was the very last roll from two boxes.
The coins were darn ugly.
Except for the one half. Brilliant.
Maybe the silver god, or the guy on the rolling machine is playing with me.
Seeded.
