Picked up my 2 boxes of halves today from the CU- actually they wouldn't give them to me, I had to drag my mom down to sign as I used her account to order them (hastle). I know they get their coin from Loomis and my other bank uses Brinks, so I wanted to see ifn there was any improvement since the second box ever was a skunk. I still don't know who my dump bank uses but was getting concerned when I started seeing some of the same markings in the first Loomis box. The count was not great but I got my first Ben (52), also got a '64, '67 and a '69. Saving the second box for tomarrow night except the one roll I openned to top off ME coffee can ready for the coin counter. Think I'll order two more boxes in the morning from the other bank, should be in Friday- have the second box sorted and dumped in time to pay for them haha. I'll get some pics after I pull the mother lode out of the second box haha- I did peek at all the ends and didn't see nothin. HH all, Mark

Good luck! No silver on the ends just means that there are
18-19 more possibilities.

Nice job ME. Congrats on your first Franklin. I know it was a thrill. It was for me....actually still is today....ha!

That is a bummer about the hassle you had. Maybe now that they know who you are you will not have to go through that next time.

Good luck on your boxes that you ordered. Keep us posted........with pictures if possible....
