Huge for me anyways...:laughing7:

Was watching tv this morning, Satruday, and received a phone call from a number I didn't recognize. I almost choose to ignore it but my finger hit the wrong button so I had to answer it.
To my surprise it was BOA calling telling me that they had $500.00 dollars that somebody dropped off on Friday. I had given my name and number to this teller about four weeks ago and
forgot all about it. Anyways first thing that went through my head was that it was somebody's dumps but I had promised I would take all they had when they called so off I went.
She loaded up an empty box and I was on my way home.

Sat down in my chair and went through $100.00 dollars and decided that it was going to be an exercise in futility.

Next roll <<<<BAM>>>>>

Couldn't believe it, A SOLID ROLL from somebody's dumps - all 66's.

Next Roll <<<<Double BAM!!!>>>>>>

IMG_20130309_103114_792_zps29e4efbb.jpg


Solid 67's

This when I decided that I should take pictures of the box I received from the bank. I can tell you right now that if it would
have been a normal box, this would qualify as a "Dream Box" from years ago.

Here is the box of halves from BOA --

Then some clad and silver mixed.

Then Double Triple Whammy <<<<<BAMMMMM>>>>>>

Another roll of 67's.

Opened up several more rolls of clad and then

Lighting strikes again.

Am I done, NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fifth solid roll

I ended up with 113 40% half dollars. I am at a loss for words as this is my biggest hit outside of my three rolls of dimes a few months back.

Total Silver for your viewing pleasure....

If the rolls were all the same type of wrapper, someone might have put those rolls in their dumps by accident.. It isn't that likely that someone who doesn't roll hunt has $400 in clad halves laying around, but who knows? Maybe they did.. This happened to a buddy of mine about a year ago.. He put a roll of 40%s in with his dumps by accident and sure enough lost them.. I always bust his balls over it.. This is why I always keep my silver in white tubes.. That way my woman will never accidently pick up a random roll and throw it into my dumps.. COngrats on the awesome haul buddy.. That is why you always buy them all...

That would explain the five solid rolls, what about the other three rolls that had mixed clad/silver? I am at a loss for words other than somebody passed away and their kids took their coins down
and turned them in????

Just strange is all, lumped together by date on the solid rolls and mixture of 65-69 on the non-solid rolls....

Sweet cull of silver. That is why you buy them all. Now you take your profits and get the rest of the room painted (picture 3). :laughing7:

The trim is all painted and waiting to be put up this upcoming week. It is spring break.

Most likely didn't know that 65-70 are Silver, you know everyone thinks 64 on back are Silver. HH, Maverick.

Very nice score!! I would thanks your fumbling fingers for hitting the wrong button. Someone else could have come in 5 minutes later asking for halves. Would have been someone else's post if not for your clumsy fingers.

Awesome!!

I noticed the wall trim missing and my comment was at the uneven paint line. I'm just busting stones. I like to notice the little details.

Four inch trim covers alot of wall....:laughing7: That way there is no paint on the carpeting....
