Ok, I couldn't wait, did a little cleaning ( enough to keep the wife off my back) and had to search it, so here it is. The highlights would be my first Silver Candian half dollar!:hello2:, another Bicentenial (spelling, what ever)40% and a 2003 90% SIlver Proof! 19 90's and 35 40's, some Walkers and Bens, pretty nice mix in the bag, I was hoping for it to be more ( I know, I know, am I crazy? LOL) but still really awsome, considering my last 8 bags were all skunks, and at 1 bag a week thats 2 months of skunks, with the exception of last weeks bag that had 32 40's in it. Enjoy the pics, and I know nothing about the Canadian ( I assume it's Silver?) and didn't include it in the Silver count, so maybe 20 90%'s if it's Silver. The gold coin I have no clue either, says copy on the back but is metal and looks like a proof? IDK. May everyone else finish the week strong! I still have my last 2 boxes for the week coming tomorrow, I am close to my goal for the year! HH, Maverick P.S, the site loaded the pics out of order dang it!

Wow that's a great bag with all kinds of great keepers. And yes the Canadian should be 80% silver and is a great find.....I don't know if Ive ever seen anyone posting finding one of those before. I'd sure be shocked if I ever found one.

HSH!

Hey CF, I'm really not sure, I'm very Ignorant when it comes to the numismatic ( did I spell that right?) side of collecting, I'm just a Silver whore:tongue3:. HH, Maverick.

Nice!!!!!


Thanks Omega, when the teller was bringing it over to me in the bank and she turned it over to give me, I could hear the Silver in the bag, she looked at me and said " it sounds pretty clinky, you might be having a good hunt tonight" So we looked at the bag with her real qwik and I showed her a couple of 40's showing through the side, she allready knew though, I mean they have the bag back there all day to look at so they can see the Silver ones too. HH, Maverick.
