Yeah, the silver has kinda petered off here lately, only 2-4 per box, but I've been finding the oddball stuff instead, out of the last 2 or 3 boxes. maybe it s sign that some silver is gonna come my way again, eh?

I'll tell ya a weird one, a couple weeks ago I got an entire box with the reeding missing off most every coin! Ya know, the ones with the flat edges? I betcha out of every roll, 17 or 18 out of 20 had flat edges. Musta been a casino changing out its old coin or something...

Does that stamped half say 1950/1980? All the ones I've found are either 1960/1980 or 1960 /1985. I've been wondering what other dates might be out there.

Nice variety there jeffro! Hopefully the silver will return quickly. You may be right about the casino. Good luck and H.H.-diggummup

It says 1960 1980, although it does look like 1950 in the pic.... looks like they rubbed it down with simichrome or something, too. Very bright, polished coin even though it has obvious wear.

Anybody ever figure out what the significance is on the dates 1960- 1980?
