Re: War mission

Good luck!! 12 banks, I would pick up CWR as well as machine wrapped if they don't have many CWR.

Re: War mission

face paint and hachett are ok, but don't ever, ever wear a hat, sunglass, or a hoodie! Then you will get taken down.

Last summer I went into a bank to cash a check and I had just had my eyes dialated hours before so I was wearing sunglasses. The sherrif treated me like I was robbing the damn bank!

I've seen signs posted in local banks asking customers NOT to enter wearing either a hat or sunglasses,

GH, if you've already done the war paint, don't waste it. Just don't call me for bail money! :laughing7: :laughing7:

Re: War mission - RESULTS

13 stops and a successful trip. One of the banks netted me all 6 of the 1964 Kens along with another 6 - 40%'s in only 2 rolls! I am wore out so Im not going to list all the stops. But here are the results. Dime #2 was a straggler after I took my pictures becuase I forgot I had to check 7 rolls from a fountain, they were too dirty to check while driving.

Dimes: 2 - 1961's

Half Dollars:
Proofs: 72S, 73S, 74S
40% - 10
1964 Kens - 6
2000 S 90%?? - 1

Is the 2000 S a 90% silver coin? It looks and sounds like 90%, and is not your typical proof.

I think all proofs after 1998 that are silver are 90%. I'm not sure on that though. Great scores!!

All silver half proofs since they started making silver proofs in 1992 are 90% silver. So if its silver, its 90%.

1992-present the mint made regular proof sets and silver proof sets. Chances are it is not silver, but it could be. Any pictures of just the possible silver proof??


I guess mission failed, no war nickels?? :P

Anyway, silver halves are way better, nice job!! and nice pictures!

HH and happy holidays!

Happy,

Congrats one a successful mission! Nice staying out of jail too. The proof looks like the 90%ers for sure. I've only found one in my CRH time. It's a 1997S. If you want to be 100% sure it's not plated or something, you could weigh it. Should be about 12.5 grams if it's 90%. Having said that, I'm 99% sure it is!

Nice haul :icon_thumleft:
