YAHTZEE! (X2)
Ever wake up in the morning and say to yourself, "Darnit, I'm gonna find a shiz-load of friggin' silver today!" That was ME this morning. Actually, to be exact, it was "I'm gonna find 100 silver coins today, and I'm not comin' home until I do." Sometimes, determination is half the battle in this crazy game we call CRHing. Well, I went around looking for some CWRs while dumping my $2G in clad (which produced about 3 40%ers last week). I try to edge search while I am driving from place to place. The first $280 or so weren't that great... yielded only a single '64. Then I got down to LITERALLY the last 2 rolls. They were falling apart, all taped together at the end. I just tore off the end and saw 3 silver edges! SWEET! Dumped them in my hand... SOLID SILVER, baby! Last roll... same crappy old paper, taped up. Dumped it in my hand and... SOLID SILVER AGAIN! (Okay, there were 2 clads in that one... close enough). Check out the photos... these are what I saw before I even checked the dates. And here is what I found:
ROLL 1:
62D Ben
64x9
65, 67x8, 69
ROLL 2:
Walkers: 17S Obv, 45S
Bens: 51D, 51S, 60D, 62D
Kens: 66, 67, 68x10
For a total of 9.04 oz of silver. Not bad for $19.

Actually... YAHTZEE! goes back even further. It was ESPN and Ken Griffey, Jr. (the sweetest swing ever in MLB). (See it on youtube.)
Cheers.

I "borrowed" the term "YATZEEE!" from a song off an a-cappella groups Christmas album. Right in the middle of the song, someone says "YATZEEE!". I noticed no one here says it, so I "patented" it.
Anyone is free to use it, but it must be for joyous occasions like this. 
With that in mind.... YATZEEE!!!
H$H!!
