Feel better after last weeks total 6 Box skunk, but not much better, got only 1 Skunk but 4 had only 1 Silver in each, one had a single Ben another a single 1964 and 2 others a single %40, my best Box had a 1964 and 4 %40's. O' but did get a double clipped planchet 1971 and a 1975 Panama balboa. 1.7 ounces today beats last week for sure.


Now the other 6 Boxes which became 6 Boxes and a Bag my wife Got- she talked the Telelr into letting her search a Bag he ordered for the Bank to keep on hand, she said she heard Silver when he set it down in front of her so she asked to search it told him she'd bring in the clads tomorrow for him- she was about 1/2 way thru it when talked to her last had over 40 %40's too.

Took in 5K to a B of A (clads) no problems she said the teller told her a fella came in and bought ALL of the $3k she brought in the week before ( :laughing7: ), don't figure he will be doing that again! Updates later on her finishing the Banks Bag and the 6 Boxes too she picked up today.

Opps forgot the pic:

Oh the merc is the one found last week in 20 customer rolls asked for on a lark the Barbados Dime from a Box that found no Silver in.

Bumper sticker "the UN" like the "UN Cola" 7up! (Gotta be a child from the 70's to get the gist of that). Not bad merc score in only $10 bucks worth. ffd

I get a lot of those one keeper boxes too. In fact I get at least one a week without fail. I think last week I had 3 of them. Still I'd rather get one than none.
That Merc looks like it is in good shape. Those medio balboas are nice looking coins.
Nice pics and great sign !!

1944 no mint mark that pic does not do it justice either- it has no wear at all- like someone saved it shortly after it was minted.

I wonder if that clipped on is worth anything, it is the 2nd one have found this year and both are 71's this one though has 2 clips.
