I did a short road trip to some rural banks that I thought might be good. The trip started out bad......no one had any halves :dontknow:
Finally, at the fifth banks some just dropped off some halves....one roll. The teller said she wanted to count them before she gave them to me :help: Luckily, she was just being nice. She gave me the roll which looked like a bunch of uncirculated. Including the 66 and 67! :headbang:
I finally got to the rural bank in the middle of no where. Tellers says we got $250.00 in the vault, on time lock. Luckily, only a 15 minute wait. While I waited I walked to the other bank in town and got their $7.50 in halves which included a 64.
Back at the first bank, the teller said they had been trying to get rid of these haves for a long time. The rolls were so old, the wrappers looked like they were falling apart. O JOY!!! The first ten rolls were all clad, but the latest date was 1985. Finally!!!!! the eleventh roll, 10 out of 20 were 40% ers. :headbang: Then, more clad. The next to the last roll gave me 18 silver. Then the last roll ALL SILVER.
My first solid roll!!!!!!
Totaled out at 51 40% and 2 90%
My best day ever.

Sweet! Gotta love those solid rolls. I'm still waiting to get one. My wife got 2 solid rolls one day. All I get are buttered biscuits.

Kindest regards,
Kantuck

Still waiting on a solid roll. Got close Monday with 17 outta 20.

Buttered biscuits sounds good too, tho. :tongue3:
