I always said these coins come in waves. Last 2 days I picked up my usual $200 per day, and I hit a silver vein. (4)1967, 1968D and (2)1969D. Some of the 67's are in super shape; one was an ender. My only regret is that I didn't hit an older 90%. Maybe tomorrow...

Got these two about a week ago. With the weather improving, I'm not hitting the banks as regular. 1967, 1968D

About $600 searched and picked up a reverse ender, but nothing else in the lot. 1968D. Hit a milestone: 20oz of found silver since I began hunting a little over a year ago.

I think I might have hit a small vein of silver at my PU bank. Yesterday picked up my usual $200 of halfs and scored 3 40%. Today, another $200, and a 40/90% split. The '64 is a shinner, too. The others are '65, (2) '67 and '68D. I finally surpassed 100 40%'ers; can you say milestone! :wav:

Hopefully tomorrow will bring more of the same.

Been hunting lite lately due to improving weather and metal detecting. Did get another 1967 purchasing a box a few days ago -- with a little added surprise.

Another couple hundred mwr, another 1967. But this time it had company: 1968D and a 1973 Dominican Republic Half-Peso. It's copper-nickel, but kinda cool. I think I'll keep it!
