Picked up my weekly 2 boxes from a bank I've been ordering from for the last year. I'd been getting skunked for the last month, and was considering dialing back my pickups from this bank, but had decided to power through the skunks. I opened the first box on my way home, and saw a 1967 ender!

Man, was I psyched! Then I took a closer look, and saw...

My first Barber, and an ender to boot! Once I got home, I had to go out to dinner, and still haven't opened any rolls for the box. Any predictions on what I'll find?

My personal guess is that the Barber is the only 90%, and maybe 2 or 3 40%'s. Hope I'm wrong!

Will update later.

looks like the same rolls i had.. i dont know my supplier nor did the bank. i had a ben on the end of the roll and a 40 on the end as well

either 2 90's and 1 40... or 2 40's and 1 90.

Congrats on what is surely an epic box. The Barber ender is epic all on its own.

Based on toning I detect possible other enders, though it is difficult to tell in the pic. The top left is highly suspect.

See folks, this is why you plow through the skunks. HH!
 

nice post results
 

As other people stated the top left corner looks to be silver. Did you check the other sides? If not and you have a couple more enders i would say your gonna get a nice box. Good luck. Hope every roll is loaded with barbers!
 

I see multiple 40% enders. It appears as if you have just come across a potentially epic box of halves.
 

Ill say 27 40%ers and 6 90%ers. Nice barber ender!
 

Awesome ender! Hope a bunch of the halves that you can't see, turn out great too!
 

Looks like an awesome box to me. I tend to see people with nice enders find only them but I hope that isn't the case here.
 

So jealous but happy for you. Is this a marked Loomis box?
 

Was an unmarked Loomis box. Alas, it was not a monster box, only 90%'s were the Barber, which turned out to be a beat up as hell 1908-O, and a 1964 that was indeed the one in the corner. Including the '67 ender, there were 6 40%'s. All in all, still a great box by my standards!

HH!
 

Not bad. 3 enders, I remember a box with three the entire box produced 4 coins. I have this theory that when a large collection is dumped, on either side of the "core" of the freshly wrapped dump are rolls with one ender or one coin in the roll. So, in front and behind of the monster boxes could be boxes with a crap load of enders but few coins in total. Who knows though, but statistically, 3 or 4 silvers on the ends of the rolls and few other coins in the box is an anomaly for sure.

Congrats FT on the great box!

My only dream box had like 13 enders. Exactly 100 keepers. They were very well-disbursed throughout the box. I got several great boxes in a short period of time there, I'm thinking a large amount of 40%ers were cashed in then disbursed over $5k worth of boxes or so.
 

How about some pics of the results?
