So the last 3 weeks have been terrible for CRHing halves in my area....until today. Had 4 more boxes to pick up for the week. Brought them home, I always check for enders in every box before starting...because I am an OCD freak. First three, nothing, par for the course..then BAM!

4 walking liberties staring back at me. Let the guessing begin! I have 3 boxes to go through then this one. Ill post up the results then.

There is a fine line between AU and MS-60. AU - Melt; MS-60 - $35. Also, check the '17 for an obverse mintmark. Congrats on the sweet cull of silver.

I think they are AU, one might be MS60 but ill check the photo grading page and see. No mm on the OB of the 17, unfortunately.
 
Nice! you've had a couple of sweeeet boxes here lately. Good job! Maverick.

You know what, I would still set them aside from the rest of the pile. Put them in flips or tubes. When it comes time to sell and the buyer wants junk silver at melt, then they can have all the slick walkers and bald Bens that I have. AU or better, then the buyer will pay the premium.
 
Picked up 3 more boxes from the same bank this morning. One 69 ender no walker enders, ill open them up later in the day. Here's hoping for some more walkers!

12 total keepers in it, lol. At least it is gauranteed silver allready!, Maverick.
 
You have more self control than me id have them open in parking lot. : )
 
amazing box, i can imagine what went through your mind seeing 4 walker enders, i never get enders, and never had a 90% ender either!

Congrats on all those Walkers. Great score! As long as there are knuckleheads out there putting these types of coins back in circulation, anyone's next box could be just like this one!
 
Glad I picked up those last three boxes:

1) Skunk
2) 40, 41, 42x2, 43 (in AU)
3) 69

I was debating going back thinking that I would be a bother to the tellers. I called ahead and asked about the extras, they appreciated that I called ahead, and had no problem selling the coin. They are my best branch, the tellers are super nice.

Its funny, every time there is a big skunk streak the other CRHers in my area stop picking up their boxes. It happens once every 4-5 weeks, then it picks up for a few, and so forth. This is the third or fourth time I have bought stray boxes at the end of a skunk streak that contained a lot of silver. Lesson here is, stay consistent.
 
your avatar pick is a marked Ben. did you find it in a roll like that?

I found it as it sits in that pic. It was a partial box from an out of town bank.

Namster, was just wondering if you keep track of how many times you get asked that question about your avatar pic. Second time it's come up since I got on tnet around feb of this year. Natural question to ask.
 
Nice! Man, I would consider that an awsome there Namster!, Maybe next week some more of the collection will pop up. HH, Maverick.
