The first time I went to cash a paycheck at a new bank and asked for a roll of halves. Pulled 2 shiny new 1968's.
I was immediately hooked and ordered a box.
5-40%'s and a 1987p.

The following week got one more box from a different bank. Got exactly the same as before.
5-40% and a 1987p.
it's been an addiction ever since.
8-12 boxes a week for 6 months now.

I've roll hunted since I was 10 or 12. Back in 1980 I roll hunted in high school. There are just as many or more silver coins to be found today as in 1980 and $50oz silver.
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors...
Roll hunting since '77
Dirt fishing since '72

my first experience into CRH was when I ordered $1,000 from RBC Centura Bank in halves....I found one 40%'er and I have yet to order another round of boxes....but I'm getting the itch.....sometimes luck comes in waves...but you can always play the law of large numbers :-)

Good luck ianp. I hope you get some good ones,but if they have been sitting in a vault somewhere they are probably all bicentenials.

Very interesting reading about how everyone started collecting half dollars! It makes me more addicted to search my own half rolls
