I had the day off, so I headed to the beach in RI with my metal detector. I got off the highway and stopped at the first bank. Walked into a jackpot!

They had $10.50 loose, when she held em up I saw a bunch of shiny rims. And after asking about three times, the teller remembered the $140 cwr's in her coin vault. I saw most of the rolls written on: 1969, 1969, 1967,1967, 1968, 1980's, 1970's, etc, and some blank. I was like, "Are these really what I think they are?! Solid rolls?!"

The breakdown was: 8 solid rolls - 7 full of 40%'s, and one with 18 40% and 2 1964. Six rolls were marked what years they had in em, 2 were unmarked but all silver. The clad marked rolls - the one market 1776-1976 had 4 1964's. The loose: 1 Ben, 1 1964s, 5 40%'s.

Total: 163 40%'s & 8 90%'s. Best. Finds. Ever. 27.3 oz silver.

PS - Rhode Island beaches really got hit from Sandy. I walked onto the beach, and left within a few minutes. There was damage everywhere. I had found my treasure for the day.

Great job.too bad they werent labeled:1870,1872,1874.Lol,still,great finds.I have yet to find a solid roll of anything.
 
Wow im glad someone found some silver, what a catch!! All i figured out today was that i have competition in my area, some guy dumped 3 boxes at a local branch..i guess thats a pretty good thing to know tho! How long will you wait till you stop in this bank again? I had a big hit a few weeks ago and i'm wondering if i should just call every once in awhile to see if they got any more in..what are your thoughts?
 
Nice find bro! Totally blows away my 8-90%'s find today.

It's funny you and OnARoll finally inspired me to buy that roll today.
 
Very nice, hoping to get my first solids by the end of the year.

Glad to be of service lol, our newbie luck!
 
I went back to get any quarter & dime CWR's i could from this bank, and then they wanted to know if I had an account. They offered to have me open one, but knowing I was so far from home, it didn't feel right even bothering. I am still contemplating whether I should have just done it. Maybe I should drive the hour back there tomorrow...

It's hard to beat finding silver at face value, except getting it for free in the reject bin, or dirt fishing!

btw - MKULLTRA is my actual brother. He is setting up his CRH operation, and will be finding grandpa's collection soon I'm sure!
 
Great job mr stash. I'm way overdue for a decent score but its inspiring to see a nice score like yours. Congrats.
 
Way to go man! Welcome to the jackpot club. That is a lot of coin there! Now the rule of thumb is to share it with the rest of us, so divvy it up and I'll collect my share :laughing9:
 
Great Score! I too am hoping to find some solid rolls cashed in during the holidays
 
Sweet haul... You can tell those were freshly wrapped too.. I bet you are glad you got your hands on them before someone else did..
 
Very nice!! Thats what i find when i do 50 to 60 boxes in a good week. I don't think i will ever find a full roll. everyone here has coin counters.
 
RI is a hidden gem! :icon_thumright:
 
Friggin awesome. I am amazed how many people are getting solid rolls the last few weeks! I got my first solid rolls of 90s recently too. Get out there and get yours everybody! This time of year people need cash & are turning them in.

Congrats on your awesome score!
