Hey guys.
hope you are all doing good this weekend. didn't have much time to do CRH or to post but i still come here once in a while to read about your finds.. had some good boxes the last couple of months but nothing good enough to post. until this friday:
my boss (owner of the restaurant where i work) asked me to pick up 5 rolls of quartes for him from the bank on my way to work (always happy to do him this favor
). one of the rolls was CWR and as he was emptying the quarters into the register, i heard silver clinking. i was sure it was silver, i know that sound!
so i checked the register, and sure enough - 4 silver quarters: 3x 1958, 1X 1935! i was really surprised, i never found more than 2 quarter per $500 box, and now 4 out of 5 rolls! i figured it had to be the CWR.
so on my break i ran back to the bank where i picked them up, and asked the same teller if she had more quarters i could buy. she checks and tellm me she has $170. i buy em all, of course. 4 CWR, 13 machine rolls. i opened the MWR first, to leave the best for later. no silver, no surprise. then i got to the CWR:
roll #1: 9 silver quarters! woohhooo. i was freaking out. 9 quarters!! and then i opened the next 1..
roll #2: 21 silvers!! omg.. 34 quarters and still have 2 rolls to open. hands shaking..
roll #3: 6 silver!
roll #4: 19 silvers!
in total i found 59 silver quarters, all were 1958-1959, besides 1 (1935). so i guess this was a part of a collection? where are the rest of them? lol.. maybe SilverSpoon got the other half of this collection in his box lol.
$14.75 FV, I'LL TAKE THAT EVERY DAY!
not that much of a dream score if it were halves, but with quarters - it'll usually take me 2 years to find that many
hope you all are having a great weekend, and finding lots of silver!
good luck and HH,
