By getting a bag of rolls? I know my brother has gotten them this way too. I guess they were out of boxes, so they shipped the rolls in vault bags.K said:suprdave said:got my first ender in a $500 bag of halfs this week . wow that surely was special a 1964 90% half . it sure gets your blood boiling . love this hobby Suprdav
Sorry if I misunderstood, but how can you possibly get an "ender" in a bag of halves?

That's assuming that there are just as many WL's out there as Kennedys...but that is not the case. Sure, the mathematical odds are 10% because we are dealing with 100 "ender options" out of a 1,000 coin box; but again, I was thinking of the larger context of WL coins "out there" in relation to Bens and Kens. When you look at it that way, the odds are much smaller.
I'm not trying to split hairs...just thinking out loud. Either way, I loved looking down and seeing that beauty looking back up at me...even if it was the only keeper in the box
