Found the dream box's brother! (pics)
Two weeks ago, I posted about the box I didn't want to end (http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/coin-roll-hunting/304486-ever-have-box-you-didnt-want-end.html), which I thought surely had to be part of a collection dump. Yesterday, I picked up 2 boxes from the same bank, and picked up where I left off!
First box was a skunk, but the second one had all the same characteristics as 2 weeks ago; several enders, both silver and proof, and loaded with proofs and mint condition NICF's. This box had 2 '87D's, an '87P, and non-silver proofs from '71, '74, '76, '82 (x2), '84, '85, '88, '93, '94, '96, '98, '01, '05, '06, and '07, many of which were in near mint condition.
With respect to silver, it had normal 40%'s from '65, '66 (x3), '67 (x3), and '68, and 3 normal '64 90%'s. Additionally, similar to what I found last time, there were a '64, '66, '68-S, and a '69-S that were super shiny - appeared to be proof-like, with the mirror background, but no frosted cameos. After much research, I believe these are SMS coins. Rounding out the silver list were 2 '76 silver proofs and an AU '06 silver proof.
Pics below:
These are the non-silvercoins
The silver:
I tried to capture the apparent SMS coins below; taking decent photographs of mirror finishes is pretty difficult!
And lastly, a little silver pron:
Good luck all and HH!
