Friday I was supposed to receive 2 boxes, but they didnt come in. I had called ahead to see if those boxes came in and was told they did. When I arrived at the bank and found out that they had not, I made my displeasure known.
This apparently worked out as the bank called me this morning telling me they had the truck make a special delivery for me and that my boxes were available. Naturally I went in with glee.
The first box was partially open and damaged so I hand counted the rolls to make sure they were all present. Upon doing so, I saw that there was a 40% in the window of the roll. I took this as a good omen, and I was not wrong. In this box I found 8 40% total plus a 1964 JFK half in the same roll as the one with silver showing and I found a 1943 Walker in the box too!
BOX # 8
8 (40%) I like how my eighth box had 8 40's in it hehe
1 (90% JFK)
1 (Walker)
RUNNING TOTAL
BOXES SEARCHED = 8 ($4000 TOTAL)
25 (40%)
6 (90% JFK)
1 (WALKER) |

Oh, I forgot to mention that the walker has a small hole in it. Nevertheless, I cannot complain  |

Today's box of halves started off like the last one.. with a silver half showing on an end roll when I opened it up. I love getting silver in the first roll I open. You know it is probably going to be lean when you see lots of those black felt tip markings on the edges though.
$500 BWR Halves
4-40%ers - All 1969-D
1 2003-D
1 2009-D
1 2010-P
$100 CWR Halves
Skunk
$7 loose halves from teller trays
Skunk
1 BIG Dollar
No silver here
$180 CWR Quarters
Skunk
1 quarter short
$1000 Quarters in 2 plastic bags I rescued prior to shipment
Skunk - At least I am getting my silver searcher score up a little bit |

Country you have interpreted my posts incorrectly. Everything under my "RUNNING TOTAL" headers is what I have found to date, since I started hunting, NOT since the beginning of the month. You should only look at what I post under the BOX TAKE/RESULT headings. |

| Long weekend. $100 quartes and $50 dimes, customer wrapped = 0. $50 bank wrapped dimes, paper = 0. $250 bank wrapped plastic = 3 silver dimes (50, 62, 64) and one gold plated dime --- I remember Highroller4321 having found 2 gold coins in small demonination bags, and seeing this gold coin thru the plastic I had a momentary heart-leap. Also did 2 bags of nickles, $100 each. First had 2 war nickles and a dateless (1928) buffalo; the second $100 bag had 6 war nickles. |

Hey Country- It looks like the data got sideways on the full year halves totals...My total should be higher and I think zerocd's total is off too.
Thanks!
Did you penalize us for some reason? |
