Hi all, I just finished 2 boxes of half dollars expecting another family of skunks. I tear open the first roll of the first box, and there it is, a 1969d, then I knew it was going to be a good box.
The box did not produce as I had hoped(and I sure hoped high, I was hoping for 20+ silvers)... But the box ended with 9x 40% silver half dollars. One of the 40% halves looks like it has been marked too, oddly enough, front and back. This box also contained a foreign coin, a british large penny.

I was anxious to open box 2, also hoping it was the same batch as box 1, unfourtinately not. The box 2 did contain 1 silver, a 1963d ben franklin half dollar, my first in over 8 months... and my first 90% silver in over 6 months!!!

Nothing like some leap day silver,

HH everybody, "It's out there" !

I forgot to mention, this comes after about a 30 box skunk streak!

Hey BB, glad to see you scored a good box. You were due. When you get boxes like that, don't you wish that you ordered more from that source. :icon_thumleft:

nice boxes. I hoping to find some leap day siver myself from my 3 half boxes today.

So far I'm about half way through my first box and nothing yet. Oh well, maybe the next 2 boxes might be better.

Thought you'd get a kick out of that!!!
:) I did; however, I try not to do it anymore, it "annoys" certain individuals, if you know who I am talking about ~ :laughing9:

Thanks for all the kind words!!
Hopefully this is a sign of better boxes... 30 box skunk streak was harsh, but this is why I CRH, the joy of finding the silver and other goodies :icon_sunny:
