another skunk box

[phrostie]

Well...I did get a skunk box. At the end of the day....but what about my lunch break?? Since you took the time to click on my link and are still reading this then you're in for a treat. This afternoon at lunch I picked up $120...$90 was from one bank. When the lady handed them over she said...these are pretty old, like from the 40s. I was like...yeah heard that one before. However, as I picked up the rolls I noticed one said "FRANKLIN". As I get out to my car I open the roll and taadaaa...20 Franklins. I proceeded to open the rest of the rolls w/o markings...6 rolls produced 4 40%s. Well, the only thing left to do was open the last two rolls with writing. On these wrappers the word "LIBERTY" was enscribed, and after opening both rolls I realized I had just upped my total number of WLs by 40!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Take

Walking Liberties - (19X6 (unreadable, guessing 1926 though), 2x 1917, 34-S, 35-D, 36, 38, 39, 39-D, 40, 3x 41, 5x 42, 42-S, 5x 43, 43-D, 43-S, 44, 5x 44-D, 5x 45, 46, 47)

Ben Franklins - (2x 52-D, 4x 53-D, 54-D, 58-D, 2x 60-D, 2x 61-D, 62-D, 63, 6x 63-D)

Kennedys - (65, 2x 67, 69-D)

(Brain Teaser for your kids, 4th photo): Which one of the coins is not like the others?

With the title, I wouldn't have clicked on it either. Soooooooooo, without further adieu, thanks for reading!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whoa.....I missed this post.....most excellent pickup Phrostie!!! What a score!!! Congrats. I don't think I could have held those last two marked rolls until the end. As a matter of fact I know I could not have done it.....lol.

No doubt you had to be excited this day. Days like this make up for the skunks or two's & few's days.

Thanks for the pictures.......job well done dude!!! Go get some more..........good luck and keep em coming.........

Nice day there. I've only gotten one roll of old ones like that but it was a mix of bens and liberty's and it wasn't written on. I have had a few finds with the dates written on the side that panned out but never a solid roll of old ones. I can't wait for one of those finds! Those look mighty fine!
