If I'm lyin', I'm dyin'...
I'm entering the start of my 2nd week as a CRHer and I'm having a great time so far. I've been able to score some 40% halfers and 3 '64 halfers. Today, however, was incredible.
Yesterday, when I picked up a box from my bank, a couple of the tellers there said they had some rolls and loose halves in their drawers...$60 in halves, $5.50 loose. I don't have an account at this bank, and I didn't have any cash on me (besides the $500 I paid for the box), so I told them to hold it for me and I'd pick it up tomorrow. So this morning I stopped in to pick up the halves. I mainly wanted to get the rolls cause I needed some clad to make up for the ones I took out of the box I hunted last night. When the teller handed me the loose halves, I could tell just by the sound when they hit my hand that they were mostly silvers. I got giddy, but didn't freak out and check them in front of her. I said thank you, and went to my car. When I examined the $5.50 more closely, I saw that ALL of them were 40% ers. WOOHOO!!!
I figured I'd bring myself back down to earth and check the rolls. The last time I bought CWRs from this bank, I got a few 90%ers, so I figured I might find a couple...
I got kind of excited when I saw that roll in the middle. It looked like an old wrapper so I thought maybe it'd have some older coins. I dug into the first roll and found a solid roll of 40%ers. What happened after that was amazing:
6 solid rolls of 40%ers!
I couldn't believe it! I still can't believe it! I think I might be opening an account with this bank soon! And treating these tellers to some breakfast!!!!!!!
