Zowie! 2 solid *double* rolls!

[kennedyfan]

Just when I was starting to get discouraged with CRH, I went to a bunch of nearby banks to get some CWRs.

Not many halves to be found, so I wound up getting a bunch of dimes (which I haven't checked through yet).

But the halves that I found? WOW. I got five double ($20) rolls from one bank. The first roll was skunk. But the second one, I could see the reverse side of a Walking Liberty on the end as I opened it!

Sure enough, a SOLID roll of halves. Almost all were 90% silver.

Roll #3 had one or two 40%ers mixed in. But then roll #4, another SOLID silver roll. Roll 5, well, a couple more 40% mixed in.

Overall: 3 Walkers, 17 Bens, 57 '64 Kens, and 7 40%ers.

WOW wow wow. Think of how I managed to save those coins from being hauled away!

The silver is still out there.

Wow Kfan that's an incredible find. Don't see too many of the double rolls like that but if you are going to find a solid roll, it's really sweet that they were doubles. WTG!

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

If you did it over again, try to guess a solid roll based on the in-hand weight...

 

[boristhespider88]

WOW! NICE!

 

[coincrawlin]

Dang! That's got to be one of the better finds I've seen on here in awhile. I'm still trying to get my first solid roll of 40%'s.

 

[baddbluff]

Awesome! And mostly 90s. Sweet score!

 

[FreedomUIC]

Outstanding find you got.

Hope there is more in your future.

Really? It was only a week ago when I scored 21 solid rolls. http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/c...-least-expect-21-solid-rolls-431-keepers.html But I don't want to take away from KenndyFan's success.

Congratulations on the sweet cull of silver. As Riley says, "It is still out there".

[kennedyfan]

Diver_Down, it's finds like yours that make me keep going... Yes my find was sweet but someday I hope to find something even better! :-)

[silvereyes]

Excellent silver haul. That will certainly keep you CRHing for awhile.
You just never know when the next big score will come.

Thanks! I have since put away the actual coins, so I have the picture around to remind me of this sweet victory!

That's great, I am going to have to start asking about halves on my route.
