I just walked out of a bank picking up a box. When she got back with the box she pulled this out of her drawer and asked if I wanted it too. I am sitting in my car with the biggest smile on my face.
I know there are a few bens and a few 64's in there. I will report back later with a date count. Unbelievable :)

Nice! Right place, right time [emoji106]
 

Awesome! 34 silvers is my best roll. You got me beat! Nice work.

(1) 1954d
(1) 1959
(3) 1964
(10) 1965 all 11.5
(10) 1966
(8) 1967
(2) 1968
(5) 1969
No 1970
I did go back in the bank and asked the teller if there was anything else brought in by the same person. Unfortunately not.
The box I picked up I opened and can see 3 enders already. I will get to that a little later.
 

Congratulations on a solid roll! It's hard enough for us to find a solid silver $10 roll, and you managed to find a solid silver $20 roll... great job, and your half dollar box sounds very promising. Good luck.
 

How do you find the older rolls? Do you go to older banks? Haha sorry I'm new and all the rolls of halves I get are wrapped in newer sheets
 

It's all luck, you have to be at the right place at the right time. New banks can produce old coins, and old banks could produce new coins, it's all luck of the draw.

The box yielded (8) 40's
My best day CRH So far.
(5) 90's
(43) 40's
Being at the right place at the right time really says it all.
 

Loomis boxes in upstate NY tend to also be 100%. -------1000 pieces of clad. got $6.50 in loosies from a teller =(1) 1967. you earthQuakers seem to get ground shaking results from 1/2 boxes!!!!
 

Very nice find!
 

Very cool! I have yet to ever see a $20 roll of halves in person. Or one of them there $3 roll of dimes.

Seems like a lot of us are doing great with CWR and loose halves.

Congrats!
 

Thanks all.
I am pretty amazed that my first solid roll was a 20.00 roll. Now I need to find a solid roll of 90's. I'll take a 10.00 roll of those.
