still dabbling - average keeper rate (2.5%)

[DougF]

Called my bank yesterday to see if they had any rolled halves. Told them I wanted $100 worth. They said "they're yours". When I went there to pick them up, I talked with the teller who orders coins, and she said she orders $500 worth of halves about every three weeks, but can order more if I need them. Very nice lady. She didn't ask why I wanted them. The ten rolls I got were machine rolled. An average keeper rate - five 40% Kennedys. I estimate that about half of the coins were 1998's which were uncirculated or close to it. Three of the five keepers were in one roll. I won't post pics until I find a 90% silver. I usually reroll the rejects and take them to another bank, and spend some of them. I find that I use cash very seldom, but I give them to the kids for lunch money.
Thanks all, I enjoy reading about all the great finds.
