very very nice... I've yet to find a 70, token, or foreign coin.

I have been shorted one half and in another box had an extra bent quarter. So I'm only down by 25 cents. I think the silver I have pulled will ofset it. :-)

All those goodies in yellow and white wrappers? Hmmmm. I've found most of my stuff in brown and white wrappers and almost nothing in yellow and white.

I get all of my coins from a Star Financial Bank and return them to a Chase bank that has a coin counter. I just bring in all $1000 in one trip and so far no problems.

Is the spanish coin silver?

Nope, it is copper I believe. It goes for about $3-4 on ebay in lesser condition.

WOO HOO AWESOME. I knew you had to get a great box soon the odds were good. I don't think that is the monster box yet though. I still think there is a stronger one coming soon.

Congratulations awesome finds.
