yep yep yep, that qualifies as a GREAT BOX! Congrats! 73 90%ers. WHOOO HOOOO
 

Yes, that is an excellent box CR!! You have to love that ratio of 90% vs 40%....phew. Congrats on your best box......maybe your next one will top this one..... ;)

I have never seen near that many Ben's or Ladies in one of my boxes. My boxes are onesies and twosies...lol. WTG.

Keep em coming..........& good luck on the next one.
 

Congrats, you really robbed the bank with that box. Great job.

What is a "box"???

It is how some banks/companies ship half dollars. $500 dollars of $10 rolls sealed in cardboard.

Dear Chicago R:

We at the bank regret to inform you that the box we gave to you containing over seventy silver coins was given to you in error. It was ordered by a Mr. Silverfinder, who is quite irate that he did not receive this box, and is demanding that the box and its contents be remanded to him immediately. Please comply. The box that was ordered for you, incidentally, has arrived, and is waiting to be picked up. We have taken the liberty of opening it to ensure that it contains the correct number of coins, and we can assure you that there are exactly 1,000 of them, all dated 1978, and most are in very nice condition. We're sure you'll be delighted.

Mr. Silverfinder, Bank Manager ;D
