I just finished opening 3 boxes of half dollars and here are the results:

1969-d
1969-d (edge looked proof-like, very very nice shape!!!)

NIFC's:
2002p
2002d
2003p
2004d
2006p
2009d
2009d

...this is not a NIFC, but an unusually shiny 2001-D

The breakdown on bicentennials...
Out of the 3000 coins searched, 404 of them were bicentennials!!!!
That is a whopping ~13.5%!!! Averaging almost between 1-9 per roll... not a single roll had no bicentennials.

Anybody else's bicentennial counts high like mine? Is my average high, low, or normal?

Thanks for reading, DUMP TIME!!

Also went to a bank and asked for half dollars. They had $20 worth and $32 in "large dollar coins"... bought them. the large dollar coins did not produce anything special. The half dollars produced (2) 40%ers (1966, 1967)

(2) 40%ers in $1500 boxed
(2) 40%ers from $20 at the bank
 
That's about normal.
