I stopped back at the bank I went to last week that produced the full rolls of silver. This time I asked to purchase cents,nickles,and dimes and I said I doubt you have any halves since I bought all of them on Friday. The teller said I have rolls of halves, I was off on Friday,so you didn't get to purchase these. She had $120.00 halves.

Then I stopped at about 8 more banks and picked up more more cents,nickels,dimes and two additional rolls of halves along with some loose halves. The teller that had the loose halves said they are ugly and look like they have been burned; I don't know if you want them. I said I'll thake the ugly as well as the pretty halves. LOL The halves weren't burnt,just really tarnished.
One of the tellers at another bank said I have one halve and I bought it. Then she said I'd really like to get rid of this and holds up an IKE. Of course I said I'll take it. LOL

I searched approximately $320.00 in dimes, $60.00 in nickels, $90 in cents and $145 in halves.

My finds were pretty nice:

21 Wheaties: 1940(2),1941, 1942(2),1944(2),1944S,1945,1949,1950,1950D,1951D,
1952D,1953,1955,1956D,1957D(3),1958D

1944P War Nickel

1964 Dime

8-40% Silver Halves

4-90% (1964) Silver Halves

1974D IKE

I also found a worn Massachusetts transportation token in a roll of nickels.

Yes the tarnished halves are silver. ;D I had a feeling when she said they looked burned and I saw her pick them up that they were going to be silver.
 

Tell the teller that "burned" halves will make her fingers turn black and you want to save her from that embarrassment. ;D
Nice going, BTW. 8)

LOL, Yes I should go back to the bank,give her my telephone number and tell her not to touch the "burned" halves. Just put them in an envelope,and call me that way she can avoid the mess of handling them. ;D
 

Good percentage on the halves!
