Took another road trip last week. One hundred miles. Picked up over $1,200.00 in halves. Pulled nineteen 40's and one '64. Just managed to squeeze into a dump bank to unload the rejects. Teller didn't even bat an eye when I dumped two bags of halves. Methinks she's seen this before!
Once I arrived at my destination I ordered four boxes from a bank I'd done business with in the past. I picked those up Tuesday. Three skunks. Wasn't feeling too keen when I started to open up that fourth box. Skunk boxes....yep, that's why I quit ordering from the banks. I opened it up anyway.
Fourth box had a '67 showing so I had high hopes!!! First seven or eight rolls produced three 40's. Halfway through that last box I started pulling '64's!!! Pulled six '64's when up pops a Franklin! Been a while since I've seen old Ben (or a box that had six '64's!). The rest of the box was skunk.
Bankhopped a different route home. Didn't hit many banks as I was feeling poorly but did manage to pull a few '64's and a few 40's. Got home yesterday and counted my stash. Thirty-two 40 percenters and twelve ninety percenters including the one Franklin.
Figured out it was just a hair over nine ounces of silver. Not as good as what some of you guys get but hey...there's something exciting about pulling silver...even it's a few 40's!!!
