Here's the total 89 (so close )
(1) walker
(13) 1964
(4) 1965
(6) 1966
(27) 1967
(26) 1968
(12) 1969
(1) 1982 no FG
Plus the same bank ( near by different branch ) also got a box in for me today. I was not able to get there before they closed today. But, I will be on their door step at 9:00 when they open in the morning. I know they came in the same shipment. So, maybe my dream box is that one.

P.S. opening this box was about as much fun as I could have ( with my clothes on )

Great box! Congrats. Boxes like these keep us all searching. Thx for the inspiration. My best was 88 - only 1 '64. It's like Christmas morning - silver edges in almost every roll.

Thanks.
Only 7 of the rolls had no silver.

Wow...I'm really glad for you. My best box is only 32 keepers. Congrats on a "Retirement Box" (just made that term up, but it could be any box over 65).

Really amazing...and I thought there was no silver in California.

Keep on rolling!

I picked up the other box today. This was from the same bank but a different branch than the first box. They are about 5 miles apart and both boxes were delivered on friday via brinks. I assume from the same possessing center. One box was sealed with brown tape and one with clear tape. Different wrappers for each box.
Second box had two enders with one being a reverse bender. But, total for the box was 4
(1) 1962d Ben
(1) 1964
(1) 1968
(1) 1969
