Hey guys, I haven't been able to go out detecting so I fell back on my bank hoppin and searching coin rolls. I decided to try a new bank today. I asked if they had any half dollars and would they sell them to me. They said that they would not usually sell to non members but they had an unusual amount of halves that they needed to get rid of. They had 520 dollars worth, so I bought them all. Most were clad but there were about 6 rolls that were from one gentleman(same guy). When I opened them, they were full of 1964-69 kennedy halves as well as franklin halves. Here is the total

4 franklin halves 2 1954 21962d
8 1964 kennedy's
33 1965-69's 40% silvers

The peace dollar is one that I just bought. In all I estimate the worth of these coins at about 150-200 dollars. I paid only 17 dollars. I can't believe it.

how are you so lucky? every bank i check never has any!much less good ones.
 
I think the key is to try different banks and to ask for a large quantity to increase your chances. Of the 520 dollars worth that I bought, 17 were silver. Had I only asked for 80 dollars worth like usual I may have missed finding silver. Like I said, the silver were all rolled by the same person. There were about 7 rolls from this guy and the rest of the 520 were from different people. I just got lucky.

Keep searchin guys and gals
