Last July I went out west for ~3 weeks on vacation and CRH'd my way around the left coast. Found my first solid roll on Canada Day (July 1) which had 8 90%ers, 11 40% and an 80% Canadian half. On July 22nd I found a roll that had 5 Walkers, 5 '64-D's and 6 40%'ers. Well I went out west for a week to go on a cruise. Because we're cruising I had no time to CRH, or did I? We weren't leaving for the boat until 10am which meant I had exactly 1 hour to hunt, search and dump. No problem. The first bank I went to had $220 in rolls, 19 $10 CWR rolls, a $20 CWR shotgun roll, and a $10 OBW MWR. When she lays them out on the counter they look 'good', for whatever that's worth. I glance at the shotgun roll because they're somewhat unusual and I see something on it I've never seen in a bank before. Written in pen on it is the word 'Silver'. This could be good. Oh and by the way they have 4 CWR's of IKE's if I want those too? I pay the $300 or whatever and head out to the car. I check the ends of the shotgun roll and sure enough, both ends have 40%ers showing. I dump the roll out and...... it had 34 40%ers in it and 6 clad halves. Not solid, but it's really hard to find 34 silver halves in a roll. That may be a record I never beat. Another of the $10 rolls had 17 silvers in it, another had 13. Totaled just over 70 silver halves in the score. The IKE's where skunks, nothing at all. Stopped at three other banks, got silver from all 3 in CWR's, found 78 40%ers and 3 '64's. Dumped the clad and was home by 10am. An easy hour of hunting.
When I got to putting the finds in to numbers into my spreadsheet I realized that it was 1 year to the day from my 5 Walker, 5 90%er, 6 40%er roll which was odd. 81 total silvers was my best single day ever beating a couple of days in the 50's. Was also the most silvers in a roll and the most total silver in a roll for me.
Went to Alaska and CRH'd a bit but struck out. AK, TX, ME are now the only states that I've CRH'd in and not found silver.
I also bought a ~VF '92 Morgan and a ~F '99-O Morgan for $46. Pretty pleased with the buy.
