I'm not sure how this will turn out... wish me luck $1800 in halves

First time poster and first time at halves :)

I have done really well on sorting pennies and looking for rares. I bought a 1999 wide AM yesterday at work for $1.

Should have seen the kids eyes when I offered him $1 for penny. :hello2:

For the halves - I might get skunked, I might not.

I talked to a vault manager at a local bank and they have collected over $1800 in halves that have been taken in over the last two years or so.

Very small bank in a grocery store. She mentioned that it's not all from one customer so lets see how this goes.

Pictures to come.

Sounds like a dream score waiting to happen. They did say they accumulated it over time, instead of a dump or a few dumps by CRHers.

:icon_thumright:

Me and a buddy went half to get the full set of boxes, so 50:50 on everything.

He didn't pull a single silver, but I did :headbang:

Ended up 4 of the 5 boxes had to have been dumps over time, but 3 full rolls were 80% filled with 65-70s :)

We ended up turning out about $306 profit with 51 40%'s

Nice score. I still haven't found a '99 wide am. I have found bunches of '98s and '00s though.

I've been reserving all my 95 and 98-00s to look over for double die and wide AM.

Is a loop neccesary to identify these types of errors?

I don't require a loupe, but I also eat my carrots. :laughing9:
