Hey Hey,

And I hit all 56 of them! I walked into my first bank at 9am and walked out of the 56th a little after 3:45pm. I'll keep it short to make it easier to read:

56 Banks
- $2346.00 ($56 Loose from the trays, $2290.00 in CWR's)
- 24 out of 56 had NONE!
- I was rejected at 1 out of the remaining 32
- 1 out of the remaining 31 was a vacant lot. ???
- $100 in CWR's unavailable because the LT was out to lunch.

Keepers
2 - 90% 1964's
13 - 40% 1967's
14 - 40% 1968's
2 - 40% 1969's


Best Roll
15 out of 20 were silver (see pic below)

I'm pretty happy with the results. I have 4 boxes waiting for me at Bank A and 4 coming from Bank B tomorrow.

And with this run, I scored my 200th keeper of the year!

H$H!!

Nice finds today Bry - and always love the great pics too!

And congrats on your 200th keeper!

I've got 7 half boxes scheduled for p/u in the next three days myself so I'm hoping to find my 200th half keeper of the year by the end of the week also. Good luck with your boxes too.
 

nice finds! how many miles if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks guys!

BH: 100?? I'll respond with something I used to say when I lived in 'Jersey: "Fuggeda-bout-it" ;D I put almost 2 hours into planning this mega-run. I knew it could be done because the banks were in clusters. I'll head out for my first 4 boxes from Bank A later. I might get to the other 4 from B if time permits.

H$H!!

TGB...always enjoy reading your posts. You have much more determination than I do. How do you find time to do all these road trips though?

My pleasure! I have two days off consecutive at work (Mon-Tue). Plus, I have a very understanding Chief Financial Officer (Wife!) She wasn't sure about the CRH'ing at first, but she quickly warmed up to it! :)

H$H!!

Just how far in radius distance was the 56 bank run trip, or how far from base camp(home) was the most distant? You sure do love CRH hobby to go the distance.
