2022: Cutting Hair the CRHer's Way

[TheMastermind]

Got off to a late start this year, but it was a good start nonetheless. Picked up two boxes of halves over the weekend, and both gave up silver!

The first box gave up just two 90%ers:

1906D Barber
1953 Ben

This is only my second Barber half since joining this site back in 2012! Took me a decade to find two Barbers out in the wild.







The second box gave up more than just two keepers. It gave up 17 40%ers:

1967 x 3
1968D x 9
1969D x 5



Very happy with this start to hunting this year! Very happy!

Very happy with this start to hunting this year! Very happy!

Wow, great start! Still hunting for my first Barber. My first box last week was a skunk, but the second one gave up 3-40s, a '64 and two Walkers.

Picked up a box of halves yesterday that showed one 40% ender.

The box gave up five keepers, four 90%ers and that lone 40% ender:

Nice finds... Haven't hunted for past two years due to pandemic and bank closures or limited hrs... This does seem promising to start again.

Picked up a box of halves last night that gave up three 40%ers, ending a month-long skunk streak:

1966
1967
1968D

Picked up a box of halves + $500 in CWR of dimes over the weekend. This was the first time I was able to search dimes this year, actually the first time since about this time last year.

Managed to find two Roosies out of the CWR:

1960D
1964

The box of halves gave up a lone 90%er: 1964.

Not too shabby.
