I was on the road doing a dump when I had to take a wicked p**s. I saw a TD bank & knew the lobby was open to 5PM. It was about 4:50 so I stopped. After I finished my biological break, I went to the tellers & asked my usual question about half dollars. They had $100 (10 cwr). There was mixed silver thru the rolls but the totals was 69 silver halves but what silver halves they were!

7 Barbers (1/1900, 1/1907,2/1907"D", 1/1908"O", 1/1909"O' & 1/1912"S'
5 Walkers (1/39"D", 2/44, 1/44"S" & 1/45)
9 AU Bens (1 each 1955 -1963 all Philadelphia - they actually look BU but because I found them in a roll, I call them AU)
9 Bens (1/51, 1/53"D", 1/54"S", 1/61"D", 1/62, 1/62"D" & 3/63"D")
16 Kennedy (14/64 of which 10 were gold plated & 2/64"D")
5 Silver (Cameo) Proofs (1/94"S", 3/97"S" & 1/2001"S")
18 40%
3/65 (WT 2/11.4 grams & 1/11.5 grams)
1/66wFG

4/69
2/70"D"
2/1776-1976 Bicentennials
The way this worked out, I wonder if this was someone who passed away collection whose heirs just cashed them in for currency or this was a stolen collection? What do you folks think? No matter what it was, it was a great score.
It's still out there
