skunk


Bank 2
NONE

Bank 3
$6 from the trays
skunk


Bank 4

Bank 5

1 - 90% 1964

Bank 10
$40 in CWR's

Great score Bry! Two solid rolls and nearly a solid roll of 90% in that 2nd roll - that's great! :thumbsup:

Gotta love those cwr's! :)

I was a HH just finding my first silver of the month a few minutes ago - a '64 Rosie - but you sure outdid me today!

Congrats on the great score!

Seems like this new job is already bringing you good luck!

HSH!

You better quit this hobby or else you'll end up derailing a train if you happen upon a solid roll. Sweet cull.

Haaahaaahaaa! Awesome!

Thank you guys! The two solid rolls were in identical wrappers (older looking thick dark yellow paper). I cracked open the first roll and muttered "holy crap". The hands started to shake a bit. I took the picture and opened the end of the second roll. A Walker was staring me right in the face. I ripped it open and let out something along the lines of "%#&$^#&^$#". I tried to call my Wife but I dropped the phone because I was shaking too much.

Ahhhhh, the joy of being a CRH! (I hope all of you get to experience a hand shaking moment too!!)

H$H!!

Those Walkers look great in any condition, especially that 1934, such a great coin design. Congrats! And please, leave some silver out there for the rest of us :icon_thumright:

Nice, those rolls stuffed with walkers are rare. I've only ever got 1 roll of halves like that. Seem to be a lot more 40% in my area. You got some nice coins there!
