fingerscrossed's CRH log

ok guys, from now on I will be posting in this link all my finds..i liked the idea that some of us here started..just for better organization..i will post everything here as soon as I can with pictures..

as a start, today I picked up 3 boxes from the same bank that I always get skunked..i was not looking forward to these boxes but boy I was wrong!

I've included some pictures below..its not a lot but I guess this time its quality..

summary of all 3 boxes are as follows:
1 WL
3 Ben - the pictures seems to suggest that the first Ben was a BENDER!! unfortunately I failed to check the other side of the roll..
2 90%
2 40%
1 1987 S - this one was an ender and the only keeper in the box...

I was lucky enough to get an order for 10 boxes tomorrow and 3 on Friday..so hopefully I'll get something good so my post will have a bit excitement..

nice score! I don't understand.. you were not looking forward to opening half dollar rolls, in my opinion, if you don't enjoy opening the coin rolls, you should move onto stamp licking!
Just joking about the stamp licking part,

I don t look forward to the SKUNK in the boxes..........but I always look forward to opening halves !! maybe thats how u feel as well as everyone else. ?? great boxes....thats what 'll keep u looking forward to EVERY BOX ! ! ! ! !

Great results! I'd like to find one of those proofs....someday.

Nice score! I found an '87 S the other day. Not silver but still fun to find!

thanks guys..lol..sorry for confusion but I meant I felt pessimistic about those boxes as I have all skunk boxes previously from the same bank...i'm sure you all know how it feels to know that there's a big chance that you will still get skunked based on your experience but still somehow you are hoping you will get at least 1 keeper.. when I started to open the first box, I was about 2/3 thru the box and did not find anything..I said to myself that I'd be very happy to find even 1 40% from all 3 boxes..then suddenly, i found the WL..then the rest followed..

The 1987 S was a great find for me, I always wanted to find a 1987 P or a D..and to find one of S is really awesome..

I get that same pessimistic feeling until I find a keeper, too.

?? What do you think you would get if you did ??60 boxes. Do you think you would get the same avg...??

Your 1963 ben looks frosty as ice!

@Tim - not sure man..I ordered another 3 boxes from the same bank..the teller said they will call me when the boxes will come..i hope they really mean it
@chris - yeah, I have another ben a 1963 that's in better shape i would say its AU, that was my first ben..

so far 3 out of 10 boxes I opened = big skunk so I have no picture to show of .. man i wish I'll find even 5 40% from the remaining 7 boxes..today as was told by my other bank, 3 more boxes will arrive...let's see what's in there..

anything good with the rest of you guys?

same here..i personally like pre 1964's better but I'll take any silver halves...today I decided to give the same bank a call to see if they have any MWRs and fortunately they have $200 which they gladly offered to me..I have 3 boxes from this same bank arriving tomorrow so hopefully I'll find some silver..all the halves above including all pre 1964s were from this bank..going back to the $200 roll, I found the following:

1 1962 Ben (18th roll)
1 1941 WL (20th roll)

by the time I got to the 17th roll, I realized I will not be finding silver from the 20 rolls I got..but then on the 18th, everything changed and even surprised me to see a WL in the last roll!

thanks for viewing and hope everyone is finding a lot of silver!

nice score, yet again, 2 older pre 1964 coins
hope to see many other scores like this, a nice average, 1 90% per $100 searched, if only it was always like that...
HH!
