So I got my first 2 boxes for the week( 2 more coming Friday), Box 1 no silver, but it did have 2 2011 halves in it. Box 2, nothing until the last 7 rolls, then, I see edge checking,( I usually date check after edge checking) a coin that looks suspicious to me so I pull it out and Bamb, another 1987( my second 1 in 2 weeks), then I go for the next roll and another suspicious looker( maybe silver) I pull it out and it's a 76, so it looks to be silver, its very dirty, but I'm thinking no way did I just find a silver Biscentenial half, well here it is! So I must have picked it up 25 times in an hour just looking at it and putting it down walking away and then coming back and looking at it again, I thought I'd never find one. I know others have found them searching but I just can't believe I finally found one! So next on the bucket list is the ellusive 1970. I added a pick of the rolls, these were the worst rolled ones I've received yet, both boxes.

I keep all 1987, p... d... s... it's not valueable though. I toss the new NIFC's once I got 2 of each mint mark for the 2002-2012 p+d halves, I always keep proofs.
Are 1987 and 2011 dates rare? Ya im dying to get a 1970 so hard to find!
