They were supposed to have it last week but didn't come in. So the teller ask me if I want the other $80 they have in the vault. I only had 500 on me but after about 1/2 sec, I said sure and started filling out a withdrawal slip. Then she asked if I wanted a roll of IKES. Silly question.

I opened the hand rolls first. One a $20 roll was marked 1971 and it was. no double dies. One roll was kinda beat up and had nothing in it. The other 5 were wrapped together with a rubber band and the oldest coin there was 1974. I scored 9 1964 JFK's and 4 40% JFK's. Not bad for 5 rolls.

When I opened the box, my first thought was 'OH no its finally happened. It looked as thou all the rolls were 2000-P. But as I checked both sides I saw one that a 1976 showing. So I opened it and found 19 2000s and the 76 and 1 1967. So now I have to open all the rolls, just in case. The final tally was 27 rolls of 2002 and 1 roll of 1999-P. The rest were 90% 2000-p and the rest a mixture. Total silver 3 40% coins. The other oddity was a 1976 coin that I had previously marked giving JFK a blue shirt. Thats the first one that has come back to me.

Was the "blue shirt" that came back to you in the same wrapper that you put it in? Congrats on the silver!
 

No, it was in a machine wrapped roll. I had marked the same on a whole box so there are 999 still out there.
