Picked up four boxes of halves over lunch, and had time to go through one (#74) of them:

64DX1
65X3
66X1
67X4
68DX4
69DX3
76S Silver (not proof)
73S (proof)
05P
05D
23 keepers, and still three boxes waiting at home for me to go through yet.
Yeah, you can say I had a nice lunch. 8)
Returned the rejects from the first three of these boxes yesterday and stopped at a few other banks on my way back.
First stop: $150 in loose rolls - skunk
Second stop: Tellers had no halves, but I offered to buy the halves in their coin counter ($388). The vault teller said that bag had been there quite a while; as the plastic was already yellowing. (my mind raced with anticipation)
There were (of course) some non halves in there as well:
'80 Mexican 1 peso
'04 Mexican 10 pesos
'87 New Zealand 20 cent piece
'67 US quarter
Ryko car wash token
car key
Discount those and there were roughly 770 haves...............and I pulled 49 keepers (over 6%) !
90%ers (33)
'53s (a Franklin I didn't have yet)
'54dx2
'64px11 (almost all were AU !)
'64dx19 (almost all were AU !)
40%ers (12)
'65x1 (AU !)
'66x1
'67x7
'68dx3
post '01 (4)

'03dx3
I do love looking through bags of halves and cherrypicking the silver edges...............
before going through the rest to ensure I capture them all. That bag was a definite rush !
Last bank stop picked up
$68 in loose halves and it had one keeper.......................a '
68d (of, course).
Still have that fourth box from Wednesday lunch to go through.....and two more boxes I picked up on my way home last night.
Happy Friday the 13th everyone and Happy CRHing !!!!
