Hello old friends, I know it has been quite a few months since I've posted but also have not really had any exceptional finds to post:BangHead:. So I picked up one of my 3 Tuesday orders ( I have a 4 box order at 1 bank, a 8 box order at another and a 6 box order at a 3rd on Tuesdays) this was my second pick up of 8 boxes, I opened 1 of the boxes and saw all the Benders and Wenders and knew I hit a "good box":wav: so I put it aside and grabbed another one, opened it and saw the same thing! I put both of those aside for when I got home and did the other 6 and dumped them.

So to cut to the chase both dream boxes were 90s:hello2::hello2:! The first one was 225 90s and 3 40s! The second Dream box was all 90s, 167 90s:hello2::hello2::hello2:!!!! I tried to get some good pics with my phone so bear with me on the photo quality but you can see the enders and took pics of some of the rolls ( they were pretty!) I didn't separate out all the Walkers Bens and 64's yet....I'll try and update later this weekend when I do it and post some pics for you. These make my 5th and 6th dream boxes in the last 8 years. I'm sure I'm forgetting something ?????? so ask and I'll check back and chime in.

Ok, so, I'll let the pics speak for them selves. My total for the week so far is 520 90s and 108 40s. I still have 4 boxes that I picked up today, but I don't see anything special looking back at me from any of them so not expecting too much from them. Enjoy the pics Friends!! If you click on them they should turn straight, I don't know why they loaded in sideways:BangHead::BangHead::BangHead:. HH, Maverick.

Nothing special date wise, some slick 20's and 18's and no 55 Bens, kinda looked like another crhers stash. Most of the coins are kinda beat up except for a couple 40% proofs one being a 70s. HH, Maverick.

That is the perfect opportunity for a PSA for CRH'ers. Prepare and note your stash so that others know what to do with it. No one anticipates dying tomorrow, but if something was to occur, your loved ones need to know what to do. We know the value of what we have, but our loved ones are not likely to share the same knowledge. To educate them is on us what to do with the coins. A simple note stored with the stash will help them know what to do with what we have culled. Don't assume they will know as it is just as likely they take them to the bank and keep the cycle going.

My wife and kids all know the value of my stash because I constantly show them my finds and explain the value to them. These weren't anything special, looked just like all of our crhed collections. HH, Maverick.

Glad to see your still searching. Hope all is well.

It's still out there!

Congrats on rounding up this collection. It never ceases to amaze what's floating around out there.

A couple weeks ago I got 72 40%ers,which was my best quantity ever since I started about 10 years ago.
I almost posted to brag about it.

I'm kinda glad I didn't!

Amazing Maverick - Congratulations!

I haven't seen anything like this on the forums in 3 years, and never in multiples like what you and your friend got.

Seeing finds like this keep me going...

It would have been killer to see that dump in a thousand dollar bag order.

This makes me want to go check my stash and make sure my wife didn't go cash mine in :)

I'm glad it happened to someone who has put in the time and effort. It's well deserved Maverick. Congrats!

Finally got a chance to give you your due on these finds after seeing this post referenced in the other dream box thread. Congrats Mav! Couldn't have happened to a more deserving coin roll hunter. I'm still completely and totally envious here. I'm just happy to have a chance to snag a few rolls at a bank tomorrow morning. Are you still applying silver profits to your mortgage? If so, I think you just paid for a nice chunk of square footage. :)
