On occasion I go to the bank and get some quarters, nickles or whatever, a few days ago I decided to turn in my quarters for cash, then go across the street and see if the other bank had any halves... the teller said they did but I would have to wait a few minutes for them (why? I have no clue). I sat and waited for about ten minutes until she brought out the half dollars (there were only 18 rolls so I took em all) and when I was putting them into my box I saw a roll that was labeled 1967. That was super exciting, but I didn't open it until I got into the car, I sort of doubted that they were 67s and thought maybe someone just reused an old roll. I peeked into the end and it was a 67 when I unrolled the whole thing I had a handful of silver! Not 90% or even that old, but still, I paid $10 for a stack of 20 silver halves.

Wow. Nice haul - congrats. I suspect the reason for the delay you experienced is that the rolls were in the vault.

The tellers need time to go through the rolls to pull the 90 %’ers. It’s just something you’ll have to deal with from time to time...anyhow, nice score!

Just saw this post as I am new here. I know it was awhile ago but that's a really cool find! Keep hunting.
