Got 2 40% and 2 NIFC, along with a worn 1976-S


Be sure to check that '76-S for silver. They were minted in both clad and silver compositions----

a local credit union. somehow I sort of built up a reporte with them and, though they've told me they will not order coin, have decided they'll order 2 per week for me.

yeah I've also done the bank of america boxes and found absolutely nothing--and I've done a lot of them. i'd try out a couple if I were you, but if you don't find anything in those, you might try a different bank. the company they use I think actually has a policy of searching them? I say this bc I have never been skunked like I have been with BoA boxes...the odds just seem way off.

wow obla, that's one heck of a find! And I thought my find was decent today, lol

Box #1 - 1 1962 Franklin
Box #2 - 3 40%

Both boxes had a large amount of 2006 in them. I already have a bunch of these so I don't pay attention to the NIFC's, but there was so many I found it worth mentioning.

alright, you'll have to give me a few days. the camera's not here.


anyone know how I can find out what company the halves I'm getting are from?
it's a flat box--as in, it's only as tall is one roll--and none of the rolls are stacked.

All my rolls are in N.F. String & Son wraps. I'm not sure what company is packaging/distributing the boxes, but I am getting all my boxes from Harris Bank. I'll snap a pic of one of the boxes in a min.

My 2 proofs from earlier! The 95 is in great condition... 78 isn't too bad either. (Apologies for the junk iPhone pic).

yep that's exactly like mine...it's weird you know, since I switched to them I've gotten like maybe 8 boxes over the past months or so and none of them had fewer than 4 or so silvers
