I'm sitting in my car right now at the bank opening up $100 in handrolled halves. I definitely just landed on someones collection. 3 rolls in and I have 5 barbers and about that many franklins and walkers. I'm so amped. Will post the the results of the final 7 rolls when I get home.

UPDATE

So I just finished up the $100 in handrolls and took some pics for you guys. Im still kinda speechless, I have no idea what this forum considers a dream roll/box but this is def it for me. I think I owe the teller some candy or something. Here is the final breakdown

1 Clad Proof(1986-S)
1 1892 Columbian Expedition Comm
40 40%(65 x4,66 x2,67 x12,68 x14,69 x8)
4 x90 1964s
12 x 90% Franklins (48,49 x2,50,51 x3,52 x2,62,63 x2)
8 Walking Libertys (39-D,42,43,45 x2,46 x2,46-S)
18 Barbers(1899,1900-O,1901,1902,1905-O,1906-D,1906,1907-D,1908-S,1910-S,1911-D,1911 x2,1914-S,1915-D x2)

Before the Barbers, I would say you did good. Throw in the Barbers, and it is downright ridiculous. Awesome cull on the silver. Enjoy it. Don't put the load with the rest of the stash. Leave it out and relish the moment. This doesn't happen to often (if ever).

All those Walkers and Barbers constitute a dream box/roll/day in my book! Congratulations on some great finds!!!

I don't think anyone here has ever scored that many Barbers at one time. Congrats on a great score!

I would go back to that bank and buy as many hand rolled quarters, dimes, nickels, and cents as you can afford because if someone turned in the halves they may have turned in other parts of the collection as well.

After a haul like that, I think your toe hairs are probably trimmed also.

Yes... the title should be changed to reflect some sort of scissor/hair action.

But holy hell, that's amazing! Congrats on the huge score! Those barbers must be worth a nice collectors price. :wink: :icon_thumleft:

Updated the title to reflect so sorta haircutting reference. As for the bank having any more jandrolld they don't currently have handrolls of anything except 4 rolls of cents. Maybe I'll take a drive by tomm just to check em out. Looking at the coins again I must say that's the ugliest Colombia portrait I've ever seen.

What no Seated Liberties?????

I would be PO'd and toss them back. If you want, I can roll them and return them to the bank for you.

LOL

Awesome score. In one single score, you have surpassed my Barber Tally ... and I've been searching for years.

69 that's an excellent haul, just wish it were mine! those Barbers will grade good, Liberty is worn off the headband. Any legible letters will grade VG. I've been paying $10 for Barber halves in G. WTG! ffd
