Bags from last night did ok. Out of 2k I found 29 - 40% and 15 - 90's (5 Bens) but I sure got a shock when I reached in the first bag and the first half I picked up was a 1925 Stone Mountain Comm. This is my third one of the year. Getting kinda sick of them now..... 8) This one is by far the one in the best shape. When I get some time I will post a pic.

I'll bet you're definitely getting sick of all those 40%s and 90%s. I will do you a favor and take these too. ;D

Maybe you're in a area where people like stone mountain commemoratives.. Other than a Columbian Expo.. I have yet to get a early silver lower mintage commemorative.

Nice score on the Stone Mountain. I got one in a roll two months ago.
They are a great coin.
Congrats

Out of 2K. Wow. It will take me $110,000 to find that much silver, at my average over the past year. I get around 2 silver coins per 10 boxes searched right now. So enjoy it while you can. It will disappear in the east someday too, just like it has in the west.

I'd tell you how long it would take to get 5 Ben's from boxes here, but since I've found ONE in three YEARS, it doesn't compute to guess how long until I found five. (I've gotten some from tellers, but not in boxes)

I'm always amazed at the returns from the east coast. ALways amazed. And happy for you guys. :icon_thumleft:

Nice bag. I hope I get a call soon from one of my bag banks, it's been about a month since I've done a bag search.
