Ok, I couldn't wait, did a little cleaning ( enough to keep the wife off my back) and had to search it, so here it is. The highlights would be my first Silver Candian half dollar!, another Bicentenial (spelling, what ever)40% and a 2003 90% SIlver Proof! 19 90's and 35 40's, some Walkers and Bens, pretty nice mix in the bag, I was hoping for it to be more ( I know, I know, am I crazy? LOL) but still really awsome, considering my last 8 bags were all skunks, and at 1 bag a week thats 2 months of skunks, with the exception of last weeks bag that had 32 40's in it. Enjoy the pics, and I know nothing about the Canadian ( I assume it's Silver?) and didn't include it in the Silver count, so maybe 20 90%'s if it's Silver. The gold coin I have no clue either, says copy on the back but is metal and looks like a proof? IDK. May everyone else finish the week strong! I still have my last 2 boxes for the week coming tomorrow, I am close to my goal for the year! HH, Maverick P.S, the site loaded the pics out of order dang it!

Wow, great finds!

 

[SilverFace]

Wow that's a great bag with all kinds of great keepers. And yes the Canadian should be 80% silver and is a great find.....I don't know if Ive ever seen anyone posting finding one of those before. I'd sure be shocked if I ever found one.

HSH!

Hey CF, I'm really not sure, I'm very Ignorant when it comes to the numismatic ( did I spell that right?) side of collecting, I'm just a Silver whore. HH, Maverick.

 

[maverick]

Nice!!!!!

Thanks Omega, when the teller was bringing it over to me in the bank and she turned it over to give me, I could hear the Silver in the bag, she looked at me and said " it sounds pretty clinky, you might be having a good hunt tonight" So we looked at the bag with her real qwik and I showed her a couple of 40's showing through the side, she allready knew though, I mean they have the bag back there all day to look at so they can see the Silver ones too. HH, Maverick.

 

[fistfulladirt]

Woo-hoo great bag Mav!

I too was excited when I checked my Xmas stocking...surprise - I got a rock.

 

[maverick]

Hey Fist, LMAO, I am literally still chuckling, lol. Hope you had a Merry Christmas, ya know, besides the rock. HH, Maverick.
