1/17/12 - Half Dollar Hunt (22 Keepers!!!)

[tallguybry]

Hey hey!

So, I embarked on a 7 bank run. I'm pretty happy with my results!!

Bank 1
NONE

Bank 2
$50 in CWR's
1 roll was marked 1960-1971. I was cautiously optimistic. I opened the roll to find 18 keepers!!
2 - 90% 1964's
1 - 40% 1965
2 - 40% 1966's
6 - 40% 1967's
5 - 40% 1968's
2 - 40% 1969's

Bank 3
$880 in CWR's
SKUNKED! I found someones dump!

Bank 4
$200 in CWR's
SKUNKED!

Bank 5
$180 in CWR's + 1 from a tray
1 - 40% 1965
2 - 40% 1966

Bank 6
They had 1 half dollar, and wouldn't you know it...
1 - 90% 1964

Bank 7
$5 from the trays
SKUNKED!

I attached a picture of the 18 keepers from Bank 2.

All in all, it was a great run! My two boxes come in tomorrow!

H$H!!

Nice score! CWR can be great. HH

nice score - esp that cwr from bank 2. 18 keepers with 2 '64's is even better than finding a solid roll of 40%'s!

I got my first silver half of the week earlier today from $8 in loose halves - just one '67 but it sure was a nice sight after the slim pickens I've been gettin' lately.

TGB , You scored brother ! nice haul - my new year has begun slowly , but my 2011 ended
strong with two "dream rolls " in as many days . Happy hunting ! Argentium.

Awesome there bud, almost a full roll in your what, the second week or so CRHin'? Not many folks out there get that lucky!! Now all you need is a MOTHER-LOAD , perhaps you might find my ultimate dream roll , which is a FULL SOLID ROLL OF BARBER HALVES!!!!!

 

[SilverJack]

Nice score. You obviously dont live near where I do. I wish I had that kind of luck.

Keep it up!

 

[tallguybry]

Thanks again guys!

I'll hit up a few more banks before work tomorrow. Plus, I'll be picking up my 2 boxes tomorrow.

H$H!!
