Going through my boxes tonight with no great results. Decided to do 1 more. Popped the top and immediately saw a SL ender. Thinking that was good, looked closer and count 3 SL enders and 2 silver kennedy enders. Almost afraid to start opening them - might spoil the moment!

Well....moments up and I am going exploring. Will give a count, for anyone interested, when finished.

Sorry about using the wrong term. For the record, I have never found a Seated Liberty in a roll. I have found 7 Barbers, though in past 2 years +.

I sure hope to find a box as good as that sometime soon. So far my best box was (7) 90% (2 Walkers , 4 Bens & 1 '64) & (2) 40%. But I think I'll be topping that box pretty soon (I sure hope). :)

Very nice box! That would definitely fill a few holes in my albums, grats :) At first I thought you were talking about a quarter box (standing liberty) but then you mentioned kennedy

Fistful...1920 half - G is the estimated quality, not a strange mintmark. More silver than numi value. The next box I opened, same bank, picked up at same time included a 1919 and 1918 half, same condition. I also found my 8'th Barber half in that one - 1907, but very worn. Looks like someone may have been culling out their collection.
