It was really my fault. I accidentally put that silver roll next to the clads that we already looked through. I just noticed it when it was time to put the rolls in the safe that 1 was missing.

a buddy of mine, Jim, had a huge box full of half dollars his aunt had gotten from a Las Vegas casino like 15 years ago. Most were 80s and 90s, but we pulled out around 25 66s and 67s. No 90% coins but plenty of 40s.

Anyway we wrapped up them up and put the silvers in red wrappers, regulars in tan.

His mom cashed them all in at the bank not realizing we had seperated.

Not as bad as a roll of 64s, but darn.

Try not to take it so bad. Many of us have had things like that happen. I once sent a bunch of Indian Head cents to a kid for a present. They were in a box and I stuffed the box with cotton so they wouldn't rattle. He opened the box, saw just cotton and threw it away thinking I forgot his present.
Things just happen.

Actually, that's a good point about getting them from roll hunting.

So, you really only paid $0.50 for each of them. Hopefully, that takes a bit of the hurt away - ok, not really, but I tried.....

Take it this way, you'll make someone else's day by recirculating them back into the country otherwise they are going to be extinct quite fast.

That hurts, but think of it this way. You find some, now you spent some so other's can find them. It's kinda coming whole circle.

If I had a comic book worth 10 million dollars, I'd lock it up pretty tight...

Yeah, it hurts when someone accidentally spends silver. But, at least you didnt pay a premium for it.
