80 coins and 21 silver? Yeah I would say 1 out of four coins being silver was pretty doggone good... ;D

I usually get mine in 500 or 1000 coin lots. ($250 or $500 worth) and range anywhere from totally skunked to about what you got, 20 or so.

Definately a good day Diva! ;D

Wow, great results!

If I get one out of $100 worth I'm happy. You've got the silver bug all right! ;)

Yeah, I'm not surprised. With the price of silver significantly on the rise, the word is out about halves. You may want to call banks ahead of your visit. Most are happy to get rid of halves.

Diva, I didn't think my luck would get any better after my first roll search ( $150 yeilded 73 silvers) but it only got better (ended up with full rolls of walking liberty halves). Keep at it, you might get suprised.

Welcome aboard!

One of the tellers I talked to yesterday told me she didn't have any rolls of halves but she knew the teller who worked next to her had some. She said that teller would be in at 9 a.m. I'll be waiting at the door at 8:59. ;D
