Indirectly from roll hunting. I sold all the 40% halves and 90% JFKs and used the $ to buy walkers and barbers.

It's surprising that no one here owns a silver boutique and buys coins off customers.

I buy mine from a guy who owns a silver store. He allows me first choice on all he buys!

Yeah not to bad, but here is the real stats

subtract 1 box that had 296 coins

165 boxes=194 40% coins and 22 90% coins...... so a little over 1 40% coin per box, and 1 90% every 8 boxes, plenty of "skunk" boxes, still very fun though.

Banks like Washington Federal have pretty good rolls. I get around 2-4 40% silver in every roll. Nothing proff and nothing 90%.

Washington Federal only sells rools. They don't roll halves with a machine. They roll them by hand. Only loose rolls are avliable.

I have 3 Franklin halves and 3 Walking Liberties that I bought off a friend for $8 each. He doesn't collect. His parents own a liquor store so they sometimes get interesting coins that I buy off him for half market price. It's a fair deal, he gets fast cash, and I get cheap silver.

Maybe 6 rolls of Barbers, Walkers, Franklins and Seated halfs.
Most were bought under melt for commens. And well under
book for keys and semi keys.
I sold 15 rolls of mixed Halfs for $12.50 each coin when Silver was higher.
Did okay as I had about $7.50 in each coin.
Many of the ones I have left are values much higher than current melt.
I dont want to melt my extra 1914 Barber, or any of the 1916,17,18 and 19 walkers.

Silver, to the best of my knowledge is not issued for circulation anywhere in the World now. With the advent of a cashless economy, I cannot see that silver will ever be issued for circulation ever again. We are living in the end times


But your right
