Had A Great Day Today......

[LJ]

I went to a bank I had been a few times before and they just seemed to be loaded with halves. Well, I went back today and they wouldn't sell anymore to me...I guess they were getting low.. . I drove about 10 miles to a very small town that I have never been to & just as I was getting into this little town I saw this bank that looked new. I stopped in and asked for halves and the manager told me they had 80 rolls, so I bought them all. I opened the 1st roll and saw one silver. I opened the 2nd roll and it was completely silver!!! You know what was going through my head.....78 rolls to go....lol. Anyway, out of the lot of 80 rolls, six of the rolls were complete silver....I was so excited. The balance of the rolls produced another 16 silver coins...almost another roll. I also found a 1980-S and an 1987-D.

I had a box to pick up so I dumped the clad and picked up the box later in the afternoon. It was the best box I have ever received. It produced 35 keepers with a 1946 Walker & a 1949-S Franklin. WHAT A DAY!!!!

All together today I had 175 keepers.

Totals:
18-64's
14-65's
32-66's
64-67's
36-68's
7-69's
1946 Walker
1949-S Franklin
1980-S
1987-D
175 Total

Also bought a new camera today so these are the very first pictures with it. I will get better with the camera.....ha! The pile in the circle with the Walker & Franklin in the middle is what I got from the box.

Thanks for the kind words. It sure was a very fun day. I am looking forward to next big one like that.

I cant figure out how every bank you go to has 80-90 ROLLS !!!!!

Jesus LOL.


I drove 6 and a half hours today. 37 banks. I got 23 rolls. 6 silver keepers.

12 banks absolutely had NO halves, not even loose !

I'm done road tripping for a bit. All the collective banks in Pennsylvania in its entirety,
wouldn't have 1000.00 in half dollars laying around.... I'm baffled.

I agree with ya. Finding a bank with halves is like finding a needle in a haystack for me. Seems like Lurleen is finding rolls at every bank, sup wit dat?

Pics are...not good to say the least. You gotta get them coins in focus if you plan on posting pictures

Lurleen? You have to at least get close if you want to converse. Better luck next time.

WOW!!!

You had another terrific day!

You should be able to hire someone to take pictures for you with all the silver you find.

Have a good one.

Another great hawl, and I was excited to hit 100 in my first month.
