Wow just just wow..... gotta be out looking to find the scores like that.... grats TGB!

 

[SilverFace]

Great score Bry! Two solid rolls and nearly a solid roll of 90% in that 2nd roll - that's great!

Gotta love those cwr's!

I was a HH just finding my first silver of the month a few minutes ago - a '64 Rosie - but you sure outdid me today!

Congrats on the great score!

Seems like this new job is already bringing you good luck!

HSH!

 

[Bigheed]

congrats TGB, great score & great persistence!

good luck on the job interview as well!

 

[danya]

Fantasticly done!! Never give up. Because you know that no matter how many skunks there are, there is a bright light out there if you are persistent.

 

[Numismaniac]

Sweet score! I love those solid rolls

 

[Diver_Down]

You better quit this hobby or else you'll end up derailing a train if you happen upon a solid roll. Sweet cull.

Haaahaaahaaa! Awesome!

Thank you guys! The two solid rolls were in identical wrappers (older looking thick dark yellow paper). I cracked open the first roll and muttered "holy crap". The hands started to shake a bit. I took the picture and opened the end of the second roll. A Walker was staring me right in the face. I ripped it open and let out something along the lines of "%#&$^#&^$#". I tried to call my Wife but I dropped the phone because I was shaking too much.

Ahhhhh, the joy of being a CRH! (I hope all of you get to experience a hand shaking moment too!!)

H$H!!

Those Walkers look great in any condition, especially that 1934, such a great coin design. Congrats! And please, leave some silver out there for the rest of us

Nice, those rolls stuffed with walkers are rare. I've only ever got 1 roll of halves like that. Seem to be a lot more 40% in my area. You got some nice coins there!
