I got to do my major part of my CRH today, which isn't squat compared to some of you, I'm pretty small-time.

The 1st bag was a major drag, absolutely nothing to keep whatsoever in it. And since we have to hand roll it all back up, it was a tough one. It was marked "Ibena Bank" which I had not seen before.

The second one was from a casino in Louisiana, and had all sorts of stuff mixed in there.
In the first handful, I pulled out my first ever Franklin! A super-nice 1961. Found one more in there too. Also got a house key, a carwash token, 3 pennies, 7 dimes, a 1 Peso coin, 6 Susan B. Anthony and 3 Washington Dollars. Still wound up $3.50 in face short on the bag.

Total Halves pulled:

1 - '61
1 - '63
1 - '64
3 - '67
4 - '68
1 - '02
1 - '04
Gold plated

13 keepers. Not a very good pull this month, but I was happy with the two Franklins, finally got a couple!

I have only bought one bag. I found all sorts of stuff in it. It was about 15-20 bucks short but I made up for that in silver I found.

Nice assortment scotto! Congrats on your first of many Frankies. Those bag machine descriminators can't be that good if keys are making it thru.

A carwash token. :P

No foolin! Not state-of-the-art I guess. Aparently it counted the key, token, dimes and pennies all as halves. ::)
