Did 2 1k bags last night, one canvas one plastic. Here were my results.
Canvas bag: 10 40% 1 90% 1 - 1951 Ben 1 - 1945D Walker and.....
my first 1970. It was in good shape too.
Plastic bag (done about half of it)
Skunk so far. Dont see any silver in it either.
Here is a picture of the 1970.

WTG on the '70! I've never found one. I think on anything that is reasonable to find in halves, this is the toughest. |

Thanks Dumpster Diver, I really would like to find some silver commemeratives. I have found a clad one, the 1996 Olympic Swimming that had less than 46k minted, which if in good shape is worth over $100. Unfortunately this one had a nice hole in it. I would die to find one of those Columbus ones or anything that is turn of the century. Would also love to find one of those large British cents. |

the whole road trip story got me thinking....so I left work at 2:00 today, cashed my check and hit all the bakns in my town and the 3 surronding ones in search of halves. was a total of 23 banks, only scored $64 in halves from all those banks, but did find 8- 40% halves in those.....but I also hit one bank that had 2-$20 rolls of eisenhowers, so I took those too...nothing in them but clads, but still fun to find, thought they might make some cool x-mas presents..... |

Thats the thing with hitting the road, you never know if your going to clean, unsearched territory, or if you're headed straight for a shark pit of hunters and their dump banks. Try it again though, CWR's are where its at! You still managed better than 1 silver per roll, and I cant think of any boxes lately that have done that well. Congrats. |

$1,250.00 Halves.

UPDATE - Did not pay the $5/box fee for these...the 25 rolls & Box #1 came from different branches of the same bank that gave me the "fee talk"...Box #2 came from the branch that gave me the "fee talk" but I sent my brother in this time and they never even mentioned it to him. Happy.

It is great to see people finding Franklin and Walkers in their half hunting. The oldest I have found is a few 64's. When I say a few, I mean less than 10.
The half hunting here seems to be more common than in the areas that some of ya'll are hunting.
Gonna take another road trip this week and see what I can stir up. |

No matter how many I sort.. I never get V nickel.
That is some serious nickel sorting. Nickels are my slowest thing to sort.. so I don't go looking for them. |
