half box 1 had 2 40%'ers and a newer Balboa:BangHead:. box 2 had 1 roll that weighed 227 grams so I knew it had silver. the gleaming white edge of a '98-S proof with mintage of 800K, then came the '87 and '92 MS premium years plus an '89-S Proof. these finds were OK but the nickel boxes were great--- box 1 had one crap Canadian--and '43-P (X2) and a '44-P. box 2 had ZERO Canadians and a flood of keepers---- '49-S (X2), '51-S, a '48 clipped planchet, a '63 MS full steps, another '43-P, an '84-P Die Clash and---------a 1939 DOUBLED MONTICELLO FIVE CENTS, my first ever doubled die anything. my LCS calls it EF but I am OK with a high VF condition. this one nickel darn near paid for the whole box. the nic boxes were older bottom holed with Strings & son wrappers.
