OK folks Finally found one a 1904 O Barber Half. Took me probably 120 boxes or more but I got one :)
I was so excited when I found it in the second roll out of 6 boxes for Monday, sad to say there was only 12 keepers in all six boxes for Monday to include the barber. Tuesdays 4 boxes where a total skunk a first for me to have all boxes in a day be total skunk, they where clearly searched halves as they where marked heavily probably 50-60 coins marked per box and the rolls where freshly rolled if you know what I mean, I can tell ( at least I think I can ) older rolls tend to unwrap different than freshly rolled rolls. I have 2 boxes to pick up today and I am hoping that they have better results than yesterday :) and then Thursday I have 6 more boxes to pick up do to my main pick up bank has changed from Monday to Thursday and so I will be doubling up this week :) 18 boxes in one week is hard to get rid of, but the system of dumping I have seems to be working for me as I never go to the same bank to dump more than once every 3 to 4 weeks.
Well I have rambled enough just wanted to share my barber with you guys and gals and show you that it sometimes takes alot of going through coins to get profittable results.
Best Regards, Ray

Way to go man - Love the Barbers !

Wow you do alot of searching LOL I choked a little when you said 18 boxes
in one week hahaha.

On a side note, my skunk trend ended today. My bank changed carriers !! No
idea why, but they gots silver in their boxes LOL. Only through 2 of the 4, so
will post later with totals. ( nothing amazing, but better than skunks )

Happy searchin'

I do not normally go through 18 boxes but this week is an exception :)

Congrats on the Barber :) With 8-10 boxes a week, you must get some great silver finds, is CRH mostly for fun or profit? With me its mostly fun for now but I will pay some bills with my 40% silver later this year. Silver will be above $15 an ounce, right?

I just sold about 3000.00 worth of halves before the lastest dive. Some analyist are saying $20.00 an ounce this year :) That would make my new truck come even quicker. I do it for fun and for the profit also.
Thanks, Ray
