Excellent day SC. Your right about the first box rocking!!! Kudos.

I haven't seen that many Frankies in a box in..........loooong time!

Congrats.

Nice score! I am not sure if it would have been better to have the most silvers in the first box or the last box. I usually prefer it to be in the first, so I know that I at least did not get skunked.

Good score once again!

amazing....63 silver and only 1 before 1960....is it typical that you find them dated close like that?

In my humble opinion, a cache like that is more common than a spread. Because the 60's saw the last silver coins produced. and a lot of people that didn't really collect coins just horded the 1/2 dollars. They were probably in their 30's and had family's.

Now in their 70's they are slowly dying off and their family's left to clean out their closet find a small stash of coins in with their belongings and simply cash them in at the bank not knowing about silver content or value.

Please do yourself a favor, and if you have a stash of coin, leave some sort of note with them or instructions to your heirs.
