First Box of Halfs

[DandyDon]

All,

Well you all did such a good job of convincing me that CRH was worth doing, that I went to the bank last week and ordered my first 500.00 box of halfs.Final count was 1-90%~ 1964 and 5 ~ 40%ers 65, 67 X 2 and 68D X 2, saw tons of the new coins in the mix and lots of the 1776ers too.

Hey DandyDon, the 64 is 90%. All in all not a bad box. You didn't get skunked. Make sure you check for doubledies and proofs.

Thanks,

Wasn't sure when the cut off was between the 90% =64 and earlier and the 40% = 65 to what?. As for the double dies ect, been reading up on how to identify them, checked out EBay as they had lots of Pics that showed just what to look for.

Will try a new location to get another box of haves this week also.
