Went to a bank today for coins (they had no dimes - shortage), and asked for halves. Had $2 loose and one CWR. I can hear that at least some of the loose were silver, but I wasn't expecting this:

1 1925 Stone Mountain commemorative
1 1942-D walker
1 1943 walker
other coin was clad

Given the loose halves, I thought the $10 CWR would be good, but nope, all those were bicentennial clad.

VERY NICE!!! CONGRATULATIONS
 

Very nice! Teller trays finds are great finds, especially the Stone Mountain.
 

love the Stone Mountain. I have yet to get one of those. Good job!!
 

About a year ago I was at an estate sale and they had one Stone Mountain half and they wanted $200 for it. I left it there.. Nice to see you paid .50 for it Congrats..

Yes, $200 is rich for that one, unless it is MS65 and slabbed. I would have left it there also. I think it is worth about $40 or maybe $50 give or take .
It is actually one of the more common commemoratives with over a million minted.
 

That's how I found my first silver commeratives, in the teller tray. Great score, congrats!!!
 

Nice catch CJ. Right place at the right time. Congrats.
 

cool on that stone mountain half. congrats!
