Outstanding! I gave up silver searching. Too many boxes of only clad with the occasional not intended for circulation coin. Happy hunting!

congrats jack, great box! Gotta love all that 90%. I really like the pic with the multiple rolls cut out showing the drastic color differences. That must have been fun. Hopefully there is more out there for you to find from that batch.
Rest in Peace

Stunning find! It's a shame they've been neglected -- but you rescued them.

Happy dance.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy and you have certainly put in the effort for such a great, great find.

Sorry for your loss, Jack. Hang in there; that monster box will get to you and then you can forget all about that dirty, scraped up silver this time!

A year or 2 ago I had a 4 box pickup going where one roll had 10 silvers in it. Nothing else across all of the 4 boxes. I believe in the straggler separated at boxing theory.

Unfortunate when you live in a large metropolitan area if you catch the lead box or the end box or the random straggler roll and not the jackpot box you have no idea where the payday ended up.

I may have to call my emergency BMO bank (these came from BMO / Garda) who stocks a box of halves and see if they will hold the box they should have and order me another box since I actually have next Saturday off and can get there before they close.

I know you live to a higher standard, but for me that would still count as a monster box.

Hopefully you can work your theory to perfection and find the jackpot. Still Jack, your a giant around here with the finds you've made across the denominations. jbuck is right: I'd be thrilled to catch a box like that...if I searched halves. Until then, I live through your good fortune!
