I'll say you got a really great box,congratulations!!

Silver hounds commence sniffing and find as much silver as you can!

Beautiful results Brian! That 18-S looks about Fine condition or better, easily a $20-$40 coin.

very nice finds

That's a nice return on that box. Ask a question,what color wrappers your's come in? I've been thru our second box and still haven't found a 90% silver yet. At least there were three more 40%.Our came in yellow and white wrappers.

Yellow and white wrappers in a flat box.

It is perfectly logical...Most halfs don't get circulated the way smaller denominations do. they tend to stay with one person and not get spent, and they find there way back into the federal reserve. Pennies pass through thousands of hands, and the wheaties are pulled out.
