I sometimes will get a roll with a silver coin on top but today in one box there was 3 rolls with coins on top and one was a Liberty half.
Wanted to post pics to share and to also ask how often everyone else finds silver on top.

Nice finds! A few years ago, this was pretty common for me- now, almost never. |

That's awesome...I love finding silver on the end of rolls...I'd say this happens to me give or take once every 4 boxes? The other day had a Franklin head and a Liberty bell showing on 2 rolls from one box.
Silver on the end is usually a good indicator of a very good box I've found. |

| Was there anything else of interest in those rolls? If not, you still got pretty lucky. Congrats. |

I just finished opening the second half of the box and saved those three rolls for last.
This was the best box I ever had by far.
The roll with the 1965 on end had a 1968 in middle.
The roll showing the back of a silver Kennedy actually had silver backs showing on both ends, one end was a 1967, other end was 1968 and there was a 1964 and 1967 in the middle.
The roll with the 1945 on end had a Franklin 1958 and 1968 in middle.
The total for that box was 27 - 40% and 10 - 90%.

What state/geographical region are you located in? Also, is your setting urban, suburban or rural/small town? |
