Do ya'all remember my post about a month ago where I bought a box of halves from Bank of America and when I got it to the car, I found that the halves were all shiny 1995's?

Well, I was a little mistaken. This morning I was checking my spending halves and doing a tally and I started looking at the ends of the rolls from the 1995 box. I noticed that a few of the rolls were not shiny 1995's. I opened those up and ended up finding a nice 1964 kennedy. Also, 1966, 1967, and 1968 40% kennedy halves.

Those finds plus the nice shiny 1995's make the box well worth it. I am satisfied now although I was pretty disappointed about it a month ago.

You know I was at one bank about a week ago and they had 8 rolls. All sides were shiny 98s on both sides or 2000s on both sides. I passed them by. I wonder if I should go back and see if they still have them.

I can't believe you waited this long and haven't opened them all already.

After I bought the box and thought they were all 1995's, I figured it would be a waste of time to open all of them to check for silver so I just let them sit for about a month. I have now gone through and checked them all. As I checked, I pulled out the best of the best 1995 coins and am saving five rolls of those for the future.
