This week I had ordered a total of 10 boxes. Tuesday while roll hunting, I found 22 40%ers and 1-90%er. Wed. I got only 1 box instead of my usual 2. I found 1 BF, 2-90%ers and 20-40%ers. Pretty decent totals. I had decided that I would post my news and pics on a weekly basis.
Thurs. rolled around and the 4 boxes I had ordered did not come in.
Friday rolled around and I was told by another source that my 2 boxes had not come in.
I had one more source that I had ordered 2 boxes from. I called and they said they had not received the coins.
I was pissed!!! I counted my take for the week and put them in the
safe. Twenty minutes before 6 the last source called and said the coins were in!! My wife and I jumped in the car and hauled a** to
the bank and made it just in time.
When we got home we opened the 1st box and found 12-40%ers.
Not to shabby.
The 2nd box was unbelievable. When we opened it, we immediately
saw silver, a WL, and a BF. We then started noticing very shiny coins.When we looked thru the glass we saw several proof coins on the ends. We separated those rolls from the others and had 16 rolls
where the ends were silver or proof.
We ended up with 69....yes, 69 proof coins from 1 box. Along with
those we found 6 WLs, 3-'41,1-'42, 1-'44, 1-'45. Also 3 BFs, 1-'51
and 2 beautiful '62Ds that looked brand new. We also found 27-40%ers.
total of 108 keepers
proofs:
10-1971
1-1973

2-Bicent.

7-1980
11-1981

I have a question. How should I store them? As you can tell from the pics, they are like new. I don't know if they will be worth much, but
I do want to store them correctly. Any suggestions would be appreciated. My wife and daughter are now officially hooked.
