1st SOLID ROLL

[halfhunter]

Picked up my order and for the first time ever they were short 1k of my 4k order. So I grabbed my 3k and left. Went home and started through.
Box 1: 1 40%, Box:2 Skunk, Box 3: SOLID MWR 6-90% kens and 14-40%, also 3 rolls had lone 40%s in them too, Box 4: Skunk, Box 5: 1 40%, Box 6: 1 40%. So my total was 20-40% and 6-90%. My question to you guys is HOW does this happen? One solid roll of silver in box of clad with only 3 other rolls containing 1 40% each. I maybe could understand it better if I hit 50-100 coins, but even then....

Wow that's pretty cool and a good question too. Im not sure if I ever remember seeing anyone posting finding a solid MWR of halves before. That does seem very strange and probably a very rare thing.....even in a loaded box.....but esp in boxes like u had. But congrats on a really amazing score!

H$H!

Unbelievable. I don't know how that can happen? Unless there's a box out there with 980 silvers in it and one roll of clad....

I'd sure like to find that box.

Sounds like some got hung up in the hopper and ( luckily ) fell at once when, when it got to the roller there must have been all together . I have had a box that had a roll that had 5 in it and 2 other rolls contained 1 each, that is what I assumed happened to mine. Wish mine would have been solid! Very cool find! HH, Maverick.

Is it just my computer that wont allow pics on here or is it Tnet still??

 

[SilverFace]

Ive noticed other people seem to still be having trouble loading pics on here also.

That is very strange. I can take a MWR roll and stuff it with all silver halves and hand crimp it back so it looks un tampered with, perhaps that was done at the sorting facility?

I feel like the people at the sorting facility "gave it to me." Christmas spirit

You are the luckiest guy I Know!!!Good job. I did 6 boxes today and hit 0

Wow, seen plenty of solid CWRs, but never a solid MWR. Very cool find!!!

I bought a partial box ($70 in Strings rolls) from a bank once and two of them were solid 40%.

Back in 2008 I got a box which had 652 silver in it. Some rolls were solid silver!

Man, that's more scarce than 2 silver 25 Cent pieces in 10k worth of Canadian Quarter rolls, congrats.

Wow that's a dream box for sure. Finding a box like that must have been what is was like hunting 40 yrs ago.

Nice find. Some time ago same thing happened to me with a box of dimes. Half way through the box, in one roll were 3-silver Rosie's together, and yet no other Rosie's in the other rolls. Three---- that was it, but yet together.
Your roll must have been from a small collection that was dumped together. A quirp of coin nature rolling I guess.

I once had a MWR of dimes with 7 roosies in it, all BU 1964D's, and the remainder of the box produced one 1936p mercury dime.

Silver will clot up like that sometimes. A solid roll from a box is impressive but I can see that happening. I had a box where 1 roll gave up 6 1964 and a franklin. The rest of the box had nothing. I have had boxes where around a dozen or so rolls would be loaded 5 to 10 In Each roll and the other rolls didn't even have 1. I guess silver is where it is

 

[Infowarrior]

Solid roll machine wrapped??

Can U upload the pic again??

That would be insane! lol...

A buddy of mine had several solid MWRs in a box a LONG time ago. The box was truly loaded and a mega dream box though.
