Went to pick up my first large order from my new bank. Seems the little ol' lady teller (I am over 50 so you should get the picture) insisted on rolling the cart out to my car to help me load. She loaded it top heavy and I knew if she hit a bump all those boxes would end up in the parking lot . . . and 4 of them did. So, here I am with 4 busted boxes of halves rolling everywhere. :icon_sunny: I pick all the flying rolls up, get organized, and finally get everything into the car.

Results:
7-90% (All Kennedy's)-->Wishing I could find a few 90% that were older than me. :icon_sunny:
28-40% (1 was a 1970-S which was my second)
9-Cameos
1987 P & D
1 painted/dipped silver-colored clad
1 of those dated stamped Kennedy's

Marked Coins: Black "ear dot"; Green "P"; "302"; Red "Stripe"; Black "T" on reverse

2 out of 8 were skunks. Tomorrow is dump day. Blah!

HSH,

Congrats!!!!!

I'd love to have boxes like that someday!!!!
 

Good boxes.. see you did have a turn around. They're still out there. :icon_thumleft:
 

Very nice results from your new supply bank. :icon_thumleft:

Is it going to be a weekly standing order for 8? If it is I hope the next batch are even better for you.

No on the weekly . . . just when time permits. School starts Monday. Got to "refocus" on the job at hand. :icon_sunny:

Great job apush,

I get those black ear dots here too on the east coast, must be a lot out there!!

Congrats on your finds. Sorry to hear about the spill. A teller yesterday dropped one of my half dollar boxes as well, I opened the box when I got home and a good 10 rolls were busted open from impact. (about a 3 foot impact)

Hope you did not lose any.

Best of luck to you and your future searches!

Very nice average on those boxes Apush.

Last week when I had that big score on 1964's and 63 BF's the young man pushing the cart out to my car dished it to and broke a few boxes, luckily they didnt go flying to far.
 

Hang in there, APUSH. As RICH would say..."Just more for your pile."
