Well in the area Chase was open, and I decided to go from Chase to Chase in downtown Indy to see what I could find. I searched a total 1737.50 in halves and the day was going ok at best at about 15 Chase banks. I found a Franklin early on while searching fed wrapped rolls but everything else was turning up very little. I was about 1100 into the search and I hit a bank that has $100 in halves and $100 in Ikes. By the way, I really hate Ikes. It is such an ugly coin. Anyways, I pick up the 100 in halves and get moving to the next bank. Driving and going through coins. Iā€™m focusing on the road while I dump out the roll, and instead of the traditional ā€˜clinkā€™ for the coin we got a ā€˜clack.ā€™ Look down, all silver!!!! I look for another roll just like itā€¦there are none. I continue to go through them, and find another completely silver roll!!! At each bank along the way I picked up dimes as well. Ended the day getting $40 in nickels as well. So far Iā€™ve been through all halves, $315 in dimes and no nickels.

Lessons learned from today: Search dumps, a $300 dump that the teller insisted there was no old stuff did produce 1 40%. I also removed eyes and replaced with a 64 kennedy and a 63 franklin. I figured I didnā€™t need them if I could hear the silver.

The take:

(1) Franklin ā€“ 1963-D
(7) 90%
(39) 40%
2 Silver dimes (46-D, 53-D)
A painted edge dime that I thought was silver in a tray!!!!

Here are some pics, enjoy. Wish me luck tomorrow, the box is in at the bank that produced 4 WL last week. These boxes have been there since last year, all ordered at the same timeā€¦


Ahh ugly pic, going to need to shave for drill next weekend. I'm blinded by silver!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
