$500 in halves:
1x '67 (was on the end of a roll)
Last time a silver was showing on the end of a roll, I calculated 1 silver / 100 ends = 10 silvers / 1000 halves. There were exactly 10 silvers in that box. Unfortunately the math did not hold today.
I did pull a G/VG 1912 wheat from the trash (!) while I was waiting in line at the bank though.

2 more boxes from my new bank.
First four boxes from previous reports were skunks.
First box skunk Second box had 1- NIFC 03P 1- Beat 1971S 11- 40%ers
Although these are Loomis, I don't know if they have separate rooms for each bank like the local Guarda set-up for other banks.
Hopefully I am digging into a stack for a nice vein.
Two more from them next week and they are still cheerful. I plan to bring them chocolate next week.
My dumps lately are still producing lots of foreign coins and over $20 left in the machines this week alone of US coins. People do not always notice the machines malfuntion and have quite a bit of their money in the reject shute or inside. I also plucked a stuck Eisenhower out of a counter. (not allowed and cause them to jam) 0CD

I do Loomis boxes also. Found 116 - 40's and 7 - 90's in one of mine last week. Got more on order, I think this vein is just opening after multiple skunks from the same source. |

Nice box.
Please post how many skunks/other boxes you went through in October, otherwise the stats get skewed too much. |

US$5.50 in teller halves today, nothing. Teller said someone else bought the rest earlier in the day. |

2 boxes of dimes ($500): 2 silver
While waiting for my first order of halves to come in, I picked up a couple boxes of dimes to have something to search. Not knowing exactly what silver dimes looked like, I very tediously searched the first box by date -- and it was a dud. About 8 rolls into the second box I found a silver dime. Then I trusted myself to edge sort the rest. There was one more silver, plus a tricky Canadian that just looked silver from the edge. First silver ever! |

Slick,
Were all 10 SKUNK boxes in October? Gotta keep the stats legit.
Recently, I had a bad stretch too. 15 SKUNKS in a row; 20 out of 24 boxes had no SILVER. Keep the faith - the SKUNKS ended for me and I'm sure they will soon end for you. |

$2000 FV...A family of four skunks $124.50 CWR and loose: (6) 40% and (4) 90% incl a nice '53D Bennie. CWRs eased the pain of the skunk grand slam. |
