Hey guys. I've been slowly searching 3 half boxes I picked up on Friday. So far the first two boxes only produced one 40%. But I just opened the last box and I was very happy to find a bunch of enders....at least 8 x 40% including 2 double enders - my first double enders ever! :occasion14:

I got these boxes from the same bank I got a great 36 keeper box (my second best box ever) just the day before. And all the boxes had the same code on them too. Well that 36 keeper box I got on Thursday strangely only had one ender (the very first roll lol). And I know enders don't always indicate very accurately how many total silver there might be but I have a very good feeling about this box, esp with 2 double ender rolls. So before I get started I thought Id see if any of u all would care to make a guess on what my total might be for the box. Its a flat String box so I haven't even looked at the other ends of all the rolls but like I said I counted at least 8 x 40% enders including 2 double ender rolls.

I know it may be a long shot to hope this might be my first 100 keeper dream box but it just might at least be my best box ever. My best box ever was a 38 keeper box with 27 x 90% and 11 x 40% I got a little over two years ago. Since the keepers in that box were mostly 90% I always figured that box would be tough to beat - but this just might be the box to do it. I sure hope I'm not being too hopeful and don't just wind up with 10-12 total keepers lol.

Well, no prizes but feel free to make your guesses and wish me luck. I'll be posting results and hopefully pics of stacks of silver porn later today. :)

Btw, I just remembered - this just happens to be my 50th half box of the year. Just thought that was kinda interesting and a good way to celebrate and finish 50 searched boxes so far this year lol.

H$H!

WOW!! Congratulations! I am guessing 101 silvers :D
 

Nice box.:thumbsup: Enders are great, guaranteed silver!
I'm going to guess 44 but I hope I'm wrong and you get 100 plus.
Good Luck!
 

I will guess 77 keepers.
 

My guess : 39 (90%), 57 (40%).
 

Just opened the first roll with no enders and it has 7 x 40%....so its sure looking good so far. Im dreaming big guys....wish me luck. :occasion18:

*One coin that may look silver in the pic is just a dirty dark edge clad

Holly Crap! Way to start!
 

yellow wrapping or black?

Oh, and my guess is 74 silvers. Good luck!

Yellow and white S & S wrappers. And so far the first roll is the best and all the silver I've seen is 40%, but Im sure not complaining. :)
 

Damn 7 in one roll?
Ill guess 98 total keepers

Newb here, but need a little explanation before I can play. What is an 'ender' and what is a 'half' box? Didn't know banks sold 'half' boxes.

Ender= a roll with silver on the end/you can see it, double ender= both sides has a silver
Half box= box of half dollars $500 worth
A dime box, a nickle box, a half box ;-)

If you havent already id HIGHLY suggest reading the beginners thread in the stickies section up top

I'm guessing 92, but hoping is 200! Sounds like a fun box!
 

If you have no prize's to give away, I don't guess. Ok, 102, good luck....
 

I'll go with 50...I hope it's more.
 

I'm going to be the optimist & guess 170!! If you've got 8 enders on top & haven't even checked the bottom yet, you've got a special box indeed! Good luck - hope I'm way off and you have 200+!
 

Sweet.... My guess is 107 best roll being 8 good luck and can't wait to see final tally
 

Well, Im halfway through the box and so far I have found 28 x 40% but 7 of the first 25 rolls have enders (including one double ender) and I've left those unopened because I want to save all the ender rolls for last. So hopefully there's more keepers in those ender rolls that I haven't opened yet. And so far the very first roll with 7 x 40% was the best roll but hopefully some of the ender rolls will be just as loaded.

Sorry guys, I know Im milking this but Im not sure when and if I'll ever get a box this good again and I have the time today so Im just wanna enjoy searching this fun box lol.
