After 60 Boxes She 'Walks' Into My Life...

Hello All,

Well, I opened up three boxes today and each box got better and better. The third box was really special for me as it yielded my first Walking Liberty Half which was in really horrible condition (can't make out the date) but I was doing the happy dance nonetheless. :tongue3: Luckily for me, when it rains it pours (both good and bad), and I found her prettier twin sister - a 1942 in very nice condition in addition to 3 Bens. Very strange box if you ask me as it seemed really average through the first 35 rolls which yielded the three 40%ers, then the last 15 rolls produced 3 Bens and 2 Walking Liberty! :laughing7:

Box #1:
[3] 40%ers

Box #2:
[3] 40%ers
[1] '64
[1] 1984 Gold-Plated double-stamped half (1960-1985)

Box #3:
[3] 40%ers
[3] Bens (51S, 57D, 59D)
[2] Walking Liberty (?8S, 42)

After today's score or 15 silvers, I cannot wait to get my other 4 boxes this week!!! :laughing7:

HH,

congrats on your first walker.
I remember my first one I went crazy.
And the fun part is it seems after you get the first one they begin to come pretty fast after that

Nice score! I haven't gotten a Walker in some time now. I used to get more of those than I did Bens but that has changed.

can't discern the third digit with a loupe? on that walker?

It is really worn but after studying it for a while and looking at the S on the back it is a 1928S (small s variety). :icon_thumleft: Thank you for encouraging me to research it!! :laughing7:

I really hope you are right man...I got two in that box and I would be the happiest little CRH guy in the world if she or her slightly overweight and bald uncle Ben continue to show up!!! :laughing7:
