I found the Holy Grail... Multiple Solid Rolls of Silver CWR

[Walla183]

The area I work in is has quite a few banks. One day each week, I take a ride and hunt a few banks during lunch. Visited a bank from my visit last week that had $40 in CWR, managed to pull a clean 1945 Walker from the last roll. After pulling a 40% in the other $50 CWR last week, I'll take it.

Decided to hop in the car and venture into a new part of town, passing by only one bank, figured let's go see what they have. Asked the teller if they had any halves, with the original response of no. The vault teller overheard my request and came over to the teller and said we have $60 in the vault. After a 10 minute wait, she brought them out. Boy was I in for a shock. I looked at one roll, tape falling off and saw a reverse Bender. Flipped it over and saw a Walker. I knew this was going to be epic, so I waited until I got home to crack them open.

Roll one:

Solid roll of 90%'s

Roll two:

Solid roll of 90%'s

Roll three: Clad

Roll four:

18 90%'s

Roll five:

12 90%'s

Roll Six:

Solid roll of 90%'s

From 6 rolls, a whopping 90x 90%'s. Not bad for a 20 minute hunt


I took a quick video of one of the rolls, still uploading

That is just unreal.. Certainly a once in a lifetime find.. Congrats on the amazing haul buddy..

Not once a lifetime, once every few years... You only find silver, if you look for it. Key to success is to own all the banks where you are every day. Never know when you will hit the motherload! Nice Cull!

Congrats!! Incredible rate of pay for 20 minutes of work! $1,043.64.

That works out to over $3,000 per hour. Nice part time job.

I have been searching for close to 5 years and have never stumbled upon anything even close to this.. I constantly make road trips in and out of towns hopping from bank to bank for CWRs.. On any given week I normally run into 3-5 other people searching for halves at banks, so maybe for you this is once in a few years find, but for my area, I would consider it a once In a lifetime find.. Maybe I just haven't hit my big find yet.. I am hoping you are right..Hopefully it is coming to me soon, but considering how many hunters and sniping tellers are in my area it is very unlikely..

 

[twiasp]

gratz, sweet score =)

 

[Walla183]

The irony of the story... Teller from the branch next to my job offered to call around town to check if any branches had halves. She told me nobody within a 5 mile radius had halves. Boy was I glad she was wrong!

 

[Wilmingtonsilver]

Or she just didn't talk to the right people.

 

[baddbluff]

Awesome score, Walla! Scores like that one are definitely few & far between. I wonder how long that treasure sat in their vault, right under their noses I pulled 3 solid rolls of 90s a few months back. Awesome feeling, isn't it? I've only been seriously CRHing for about 18 months. A lot if it is luck, but the more banks you hit, the better your chances of a similar score. Congrats!!!

 

[thripp]

Wow that is really good! All I've found is solid rolls of 40% halves, never 90%.

 

[theekman]

those pictures almost make me sick haha!! very nice score this is the kind of stuff that keeps me going, thanks for posting and congrats!!

what kind of banks do you guys find cwr's? ive been on multiple road trips going to every bank i see and have only come across 1 bank that had 70 dollars in halves that turned out to be skunks.

 

[Southpaw]

Oh man, my heart started beating faster just reading this. The anticipation would be too much for me. I'd have to check at least one roll once I returned to the car.

 

[Diver_Down]

sweet cull of silver. I would love to see a group shot of the early walkers especially the '17-S

 

[tallguybry]

He called me as he was opening the rolls and his reaction was identical to my first Solid Rolls, his voice went up an octave or so and I know his hands were shaking for quite some time!

Congrats Brother!! Welcome to the "Solid Roll" club!!



H$H!!
