Yep...I stopped at a few banks the last few days. I was CRH'ing again....and it sure felt good.....ha!!

This past Friday, me and Mr. LJ left town early going to our little cabin in the woods. On the way, I was thinking about a little bank...and I mean a LITTLE bank...I hit a couple of times that was right on our way. It had always produced a little silver....not big numbers but always produced something.

When we were a few miles away from that bank I asked him if he could stop there real quick as I ran inside. I didn't have much cash on me but wasn't worried because they never had a huge amount of rolls in the past. The teller said she had 17 rolls of halves. I had $171 with me.....lol. I'll take em please..... ;D. Once we got back on the road I started opening rolls......that sure felt good....wahooooooo! Ended up with 7-8 40% and 1 90% Kennedy. Felt like I just walked out of therapy when I was done with the rolls..... :D.

Today, I hit another small bank that had some rolls......produced about the same.....7-8 40% and 1 90% Kennedy.

Now the exciting story......yesterday, I was tending to some business during my lunch hour which was in an area of several banks that I worked over hard in the past. I pulled into this one bank and the teller said none in the vault but she did have one roll in her drawer which I naturally bought. I noticed an asterisk looking symbol on it but walked out with it anyway.....thinking a dump roll, but why just one?

Anyway, I got in my car an opened it and saw a 51 Franklin looking at me!!!! I thought to myself....could it be....oh please.....I then turned the roll upside down in my other hand letting them slide out of the roll into my other hand and all I saw were Walkers....OMG!!!!! The sight and sound of 90%'ers hitting each other was so exciting. I could not believe what I was looking at. The roll contained 5 Franklin's and 15 Walkers. The oldest was a 1918. There were two 1920's and the rest were 41-47. Not a bad ratio huh.....lol.

I was so excited I immediately called Mr. LJ and told him what I just found. After I hung up with him I called Fiddycent man (as you may or may not know...my brother-in-law) and told him of my pick up. They were both just as excited as I was.....lol.

Oh well.....I had to tell my story. Overall, the searching from those three banks felt pretty darn good I must say. This semester will be done real soon and I plan on hitting as many banks as I can before next semester. I am not ordering boxes.....just hopping.

??????????????????????????????????????

Would you mind sharing the video from the cabin with us ? You could call it "LJ Goes Wild ". I am sure Mr. LJ wouldn't mind. Maybe we could blur his face to protect the innocent.
Welcome back Girl, It's nice to take a break from school and work. Jim

Man I have not seen a roll like that in a while. I can't believe you...incredible. Nice to see your finds again. Hope to see more. Hey send some of that luck my way.

I think that break you took earned you some "beginners luck"!
Nice find. I haven't seen a solid roll of walkers and bens yet. Good luck on your searches on the bank hopping circuit.

LJ!!!!!!!!!!!!

When you fall off the wagon after therapy, you are supposed to turn in the CRA (coin rollers anonymous) token that was given to you as a reminder of the evil ways of your addiction.

By the way, YOU SCORED!!!!!!!!!!!!
