So I'm off to a great start of the year just after Jan. I've almost found as much silver this year as my last year total. Granted I only started in June of last year. I went back and looked and in the 6 months last year i CRH i found 47oz. In January alone I've found 33oz. I had one box last week that had 24.05oz

Heres what i found in that one box.


  • JFK(40%) = 11
  • JFK(90%) = 6
  • Ben = 29
  • Walking = 29
  • Barber = 1

Few pictures enjoy. The gold plated Liberty is really nice too!

Nice finds! You got a part or all of somebodies collection dump. Seeing boxes like this makes me want to make sure I sell my collection before I retire to make sure my collection I worked hard for doesn't just get dumped at a bank for face value. Unless my son gets into coins I think I will look at my coins as a small part of my retirement account.

Amazing box, congrats! I know how exciting it is to open up loaded rolls like that! A barber half is a rare find, too.

:notworthy: That's some box, almost a dream box. I would call it a "Grand Slam" box (it has Barber, Walker, Ben & Ken all in 1 box) & congrats. Are the Franklins or Walkers any key dates?
Also if you have a scale & if any of the 40%s are 1965 there were some 90% silver blanks used in 1965 & they are a error coin. In 1966 some of the 40% are missing the designers initials (FG) o
n the back & they are a error coin also. Congrats once again.
