Today I picked up my boxes from the usual place and thought I had hit a dream box. As I opened the box I saw three or four rolls with silvers on the edge. Turned out those were almost the only silvers in that box. The next box had a good mix and gave me a first 1955 BEN FRANKLIN for my collection. Here are the finds and the pictures. Keep huntin.

16-40%ers

1- s mint clad bicentenial

1964 (2)
Ben Franklins (2) 1952 and a 1955 (A FIRST FOR ME)
1993 90% silver S mint

22 keepers but some good finds.

a proof set that somebody busted up ? Thanks Argentium.

Argentium,

It is a 93-s which is silver. I believe it is 90% because I can not see more than one tone of silver color on the rim. Yes, and it would be from a proof set most likely. Thanks for checking out my finds.

Nice job on the 55. Is it a "bugs bunny" version? Also have you found a 53 P yet? For me that was a harder coin to find than the 55.

Hey GT350, It is not a bugs bunny and I will actually have to check on the 53P. I have quite a few Benz but I am not sure on what key dates I have. Thanks.
