We took all my halves to the casino again to exchange for bills and play the slots, of course. While playing we found 23 silver half dollars again (same number as last time). Two of them were 90% however. The wife found most of them. She is getting good. You know, after working at this hobby for a few months I can recognize the silver halves in a pile of clad from 3 ft away. I can also tell the difference in the sound when they pling in the tray. Unfortunately, we didn't win this time like we did last time. Had fun anyway.

Great!! Good to see someone else having success at the slot thang. I hope your losses didn't eat into your silver profit! Don't you love your new "ability" to spot halves?

It's great that they're still using coins in the LV casinos. at least for now!
With the new machines from IGT and others, slots are totally coinless!!!!!!
The 2 casinos - Foxwoods (largest in world) and Mohegan Sun in CT have gone coinless.
No more can I look for silver halves.
They take in and payout with tickets.
SUX big time!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice haul. A casino near me would certainly solve a delimma of getting rid of halves and possibly a chance to do as well as you and Immy do.

Congratulations,

Rev
