"Box of enders to sell or open" Guessing Contest #1. Closest guess wins Silver!

http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/coin-roll-hunting/407799-box-enders-sell-ebay-open.html

OK the "Open them rolls" crowd wins the vote. Here is a contest for anyone that might be interested.

Contest #1 is a plan & simple guessing contest to guess the total number of silver coins I will find in the "ender box", the total number of both 40% and 90% combined. The person with the closest guess will win two (2) 40% Silver Kennedy half dollars. If the guess is exactly right, the winner will receive Four (4) 40% halves.
The totals will be posted on Saturday, April 12th.
If there are duplicate guesses, the person that first placed that guess will be chosen if their pick wins.
* SilverForBrains gets first dibs on a total of 73 silvers if he wants it due to his great math workup on the original thread.

Also see contest #2 for another chance to win silver. And if the same person wins this contest (w/exact guess) and wins contest #2 they will receive a full roll of 40% Silver coins!
Good Luck!

It wasn't all bad, I got one of my best roll out of there. I saved the two Walker ender rolls for last and the 2nd one (the last roll I opened) gave me a total of 3 nice Ladys, a first for me. I'm sure glad I didn't sell that roll!

Well, I wish there had been more, but just never know with this hobby. Thanks for offering the contest to us and congrats to spirtjug.

So agme, are u still saving your enders? I have some a couple of cent rolls with wheat enders that I've saved and at least one nickel roll with a buffalo ender that I found over a year ago but I haven't been saving my enders lately and Idk if I could resist opening the occasional half dollar enders that I find lol.

Well, I hope u have good luck the rest of the year, H$H!

No SilverFace, no more saving enders for me, I will crack those babies as soon as I see them. lol
I have no idea how I had enough restraint to save all those. I really did expect to get a hundred or so keepers but like you said, you just never know with this hobby.
Thank you and good luck to you too.

Congrats on the 3 Walker roll. My best box ever was a 38 keeper box I got just over 2 years ago in Jan 2012 and my best roll in that box had 3 Walkers also, and that's still my best ever mwr as well.

Oh but I forgot to mention, that 3 Walker mwr that I found wasn't an ender roll though, Im still looking for my first Walker ender.

H$H!

Wow, I noticed spiritjug was a new member to the site but I didn't realize that was spirtjug's very first post. That is a nice welcome to Tnet and maybe u should buy a lotto ticket or something spirtjug to see if your good luck continues lol. Like I'm always saying, with this hobby u just never know where or when you'll find em, now that even includes Tnet contests too lol.

Not a bad guess for my first post. Thanks TNet folks I have learned so much from you all. I am sure enjoying this hobby.

No, not bad at all! You said you crh an assortment of denominations. If you don't mind my asking, have you been hunting coin rolls for a while?
Keep at it!

 

[spiritjug]

Dabbled in few rolls here and there last year. This year I try to get full boxes if I can afford it. Just easing into it. I always get nervous when visiting dump and pick up banks.

I mix the denominations so I don't get a look from the tellers when I go to the dump bank.

Well you are going about it the right way, easing into it. If everybody that crh's eased into it, the hobby would be a lot better off for it. If you've been reading the posts for a while, you know what I mean. Not too much to be nervous about in your case, you are not abusing the system, as long as you don't, you should be fine.
