Got one of those fantastic finds like I have seen other folks here do. I stopped at a Frost bank that I have not stopped by in some time. I asked the teller if they had any halves I could by, and she got a grin on her face and covered up the halves on her tray with her hand. She said I got 10 dollars you can have, and started messin with me and being coy. She then took her hand of the tray and said you can have these. It did not take much of a glance to see they were ALL silver. We talked a little more, and I left her with the knowledge that I save more than the silver, I am trying to complete the series, which includes the clad coins, so I think she will be more receptive to keeping the good ones for me. When I got back to work I looked them thru, and there were 7 90% and 13 40%. The 90% is equal to what I found for the whole month of May up to this point, and the 40% is equal to half. I did not expect to find anything else, so I had already posted on Hobnob's thread this morning. Oh well, it will be a good start for next month. My first solid silver roll, it does help keep the juices flowing especially after the dismal finds the past month (including the last 4 boxes being skunks). For anyone getting the big skunks, keep looking, they are out there. And they are not always at the small banks, the Frost bank I stopped at is one of the bigger banks.

Good job!
I guess the teller knew they were silver?
 

She did, and I was extremely surprised that she did not try to keep them for herself. If she does save me back some good ones like I think she might, then time to time I will have to bring her a box of chocolates or something.
 

Great job Wayne.....you deserved that stop at that bank. Congrats. Very good advice on persistence.

Very nice teller also....a little something for her would not hurt one bit.

Kudos and keep em coming Wayne.
 

Sweet! Those kind of days make all the difference.
