Thats right, found $24.50 in gold plated half dollars:
Most were in horrible condition.. I must admit how let down I was by seeing these contrast against the copper edges of the other coins... Almost as let down as you were after reading that I didn't find a box full of gold eagles, but I must admit how weird it was to get so many of these guys!... I did pull 1 90%er, and 3 40%ers from those three boxes though... More about that below...
So anyway, went on to do my customer wrapped roll hunt, and decided to hit quarters pretty hard, and got $400 in CWRs. I am glad I did...
That is four silver quarters in one customer wrapped roll! Not bad!
This is what I ended up with after searching all of those quarter rolls:
Not too bad, right? Quarters! Seven!
So I had already searched 3 boxes of halves, and $400 in quarters, $200 in dimes, and I needed to dump some coins to finish up my CWRs before my banks closed at 3:00pm, so I hit up the coin counter for the 4th time that day, and ran to my last two banks.. One had nothing, the other had $250 in halves which I thought was somebody's dump, but it ended up, it was dropped off by an older lady, so I started to get very excited, because old ladies with half dollars, usually means goodies. I patiently await my halves from the vault, and get excited when I see how nasty and old the rolls looked.. Got in the car, only wound up with 4 40%ers, 1 ben. That brought me to 7 40%ers, 2 90%ers for today:
Oh yeah.. forgot to mention, that other 90%er was a 44 walker
Not a bad day Thanks for reading, and happy hunting!
