Well yesterday I went on a mini-road trip and after 1295.50 i came out with my FIRST Ben - which was pretty cool but my only silver of the trip. I also got a Serenity Prayer Coin that is almost the same size as a half - I think its made of pewter or something, and 1 NIFC. So my road trip wasn't as fantastic as everyone else's.
Road trip breakdown!

Bank#1 No halves
Bank#2 No halves
Bank#3 No halves
Bank#4 No halves
Bank#5 $40 in rolls, 2 hand rolls 2 machine - Skunked
Bank#6 No halves
Bank#7 $21 Loose halves (The lady went around to every tray and pulled like 2-7 dollars from each tray it was pretty nice of her) but was a complete skunk
Bank#8 No halves
Bank#9 $20 They had more but told me that they could only sell me $20 dollars worth....
Bank#10 $10 in hand roll This is where my ben came from
Bank#11 $750 Someones Dump, 500 was in a canvas bag so i thought cool and then the other $250 was hand rolled and i figured that part might be a dump but i bought it all anyways.
Bank#12 $4.50 loose halves - Skunked
Bank#13 $450 in machine rolls (this is where the serenity token came from)
And I was out of cash so headed home :)

So Friday I cashed all that in, brushed the stinky smell off, withdrew some more money, and went and picked up the 3 boxes i had waiting for me.

Box#1 2 40%ers 3 Nifcs 1 Super Damaged proof that i threw back
Box#2 8 40%ers 1 Nifc and a Chrome or Gold plated coin that is counterstamped 1960 on one side and 1980 on the other
Box#3 Skunk on silver 1 Nifc

Was pretty darn fun except after reading everyone else's road trips I kinda expected more out of it but was pretty neat finally getting my first Ben.

Well that road trip definitely stunk!!!! But at least you got your Franklin!!!! :thumbsup:
 
Seagates little road trips usually produce little. You have to go big to get big. That is how I pull in the silver on the road trips. But good find on the Ben.

it was about a 70 mile (one way) trip going through i think at least 6 or 7 diff small towns. I wish i had more capital to do it large :P
 
That was a decent trip but if there is little to pick up then chances are there will be little silver found. That is just the facts ya know. Better luck next time.
