I found a 66.. yea! I was happy since I have only found two silvers so far (this makes three).
Also two of the rolls each had a susan B dollar in the middle?? Oh well it all adds up :)

Iv'e had a couple with SB's. Thats a $10.50 roll for $10. Course I have had some junk coins tossed in to the mix so it all evens out.

Nice Christine. With the Suzie B. you already made a profit...lol. It's kinda funny...I have found these in the middle of rolls too.....whoever must think they are quarters and ripping the bank off....I guess? ???

Keep plugging away girl......stashes grow one silver half at a time. Kinda like the pyramids of Egypt....one stone block at a time.

Keep em coming......

Congrads on the silver, I had a Susan B in between 2 halves in a roll once. The way I look at it is that I made 50 cents ;D

Its funny none of the three I have looked silver from the side. The last one I would have sworn it was clad because it had the stripe on the side. But if the date says silver and that wonderful sound says silver...gotta be silver.

Christine....I know exactly what you are seeing. I have been getting alot of casino halves in my boxes lately. They are very worn and show the copper on the rims. I am referring to the 40% here. At first glance I didn't think they were silver either but just like you said the sound & date says silver...lol. The copper shows up even more in the pictures I have posted the last couple of weeks.

I actually found a few more like this today that I will be posting later.

Keep em coming girl & good luck.

Is that what causes the stripe?? Slot machines... oooohh I wanna to to Vegas. I have
been once and would love to go again (now that I know to actually look at the coins).
I was bummed to see the nicer Strip casinos went to paper slips.

Later

I love to go to Vegas too....meet up with Immy & have him show me the ropes of this "casino" hunting. That would be so much fun.

I just found a '68 that edge searching wouldn't have caught- not worn either nice and reeded but copper striped. Good thing I date search. HH Mark
