CHECK OUT MY ENDERS! 1899 Barber and Walkers!

[maverick]

Hey everyone, well, just got home with 8 of my 12 boxes for today, 1 box I got was a little older and beat up looking and this is what I saw when I opened it! Yup, that is a 1899 Barber Half ender!!!!! 2 Walker enders! and 2 more enders! total of 5 enders and 1 that is a proof ( finger pointing it out) that I am hoping is Silver. I have a lot to search today and reroll so I probably won't post results till late tonight. I am hoping there is more than just the enders in this box, lol. HH, Maverick.

Now thats a dream box! Hope the rest is lots more barbers and walkers! Way to go Mav!

 

[Joe777Cool]

how on earth does somebody see those enders and not open that box immediately? Id be ordering the kids a pizza

 

[FormerTeller]

Gotta love the ugly silver enders! Can't wait to hear how it turns out!

 

[jrf30]

great box. Hope it turned out even better once you opened it up. :-)

Hope its a record breaker! persistance is paying off

And the results

Ok, well, not the dream box I was hoping for, but an AWSOME box none the less, I ended up with 13 90's and 26 40's,

7 64's, 3 Walkers, 1 George Washington Comem, and 1 1899 Barber
also the painted coin and 3 Gold halves ( not real gold)

Sorry the pics kinda suck, but I tried. Nothing spectacular opening the rolls so I didn't get any pics of that. I think the damaged coins may have come from a wishing fountain or something like that. Thanks for looking guys! HH, Maverick.

Man, is that underwater or in a fire?

Great finds!

Look to me to have been in water for a period of time, they look and feel as if I could just rub them with a little baking soda and water and they'd clean up, not sure though, still debating that. HH, Maverick.

Still a truly awesome haul.. COngrats Buddy..

 

[SilverForBrains]

[Coppercrazy]

I love barber and the painted Kennedy is in pretty nice shape for being in circulation.

That's always a tough one, leave it as is or clean it up...

I can just imagine someone saying "these coins are old and gross, I'll get rid of them in the machine and get some nice new cash."

Nice box, Maverick! If only those coins could talk.....congrats!

 

[Numismaniac]

Nice box! Congrats

 

[BRChiver]

Mav, this is a GREAT box!! This is better than I have ever found. Not to mention one from the 19th Century!

 

[TimZim]

Yep,
Looks like water. Here is a '67 I found. Soaked in peroxide and scrubbed the mess out of it with baking soda...didn't get it all off.
