JFK Half Dollar Roll Hunters: Silver, Proofs And Other Finds

Forgive my shorthand. W is for Walkers, B for Ben Franklins, K for Kennedys, and 90 and 40 for percentages of silver.

LOL! Trust me, if I ever find 2000 silver halves in a $500 box I'll make sure you're the first to know!

hmmmmm.... box 2 was a skunk as well...

Plenty of NIFC:

Where is the silver?

I finally started searching halves this week. Haven't ordered a box yet. But I have been picking up loose and customer wrapped rolls. Altogether about $40 worth

Found one 1967 and one 2007. Looking for varieties now. Boy this is fun.

Hey everyone. I am new to the forum but have been following it for over three months. Yesterday I opened 6 boxes. My results are:
3 - 40%
1- 90%
I tend to get a lot of NIFC coins (2002 +) but I usually don't keep them. I have some interesting coins I have found like a 1909-o barber a Bu 1950 commemerative Booker t Washington. I also found a weird 1964 double sided Kennedy half it looks silver, but doesn't sound silver. I'll post some pictures of that coin later. I have another 14 boxes at home I will post those results later.

Well Persistence pays off finally. Went to the bank today and checked to see if I could get a box of pennies for Dawson. Nope the bank is short on cents. So I ask her if they have any of the new dollars in rolls from the mint, So I then ask her about old dollars No. So I ask then about half Dollars, She has 100.00 in halves. So I took $50.00 five Rolls. all in old wrappers. what the heck. I get home and open the end and slide them out on the sorting Pad. Then I hear the oh so sweet sound of "Clank". First time I have ever found Silver in half dollar rolls and I have searched about 10 boxes worth. So I start digging. I get 36 40% out of the 5 rolls, So back to the bank I go to get the other 5 Rolls. Chalk up another 36 for a total of 72 40% halves.

No I am going to buy a lottery ticket or two. Here is the pics of the finds. Also these are in old wrappers and I am sure that they have never been searched. I just want them for the Silver. If there is anyone that wants to buy the other Clad at face value to search for other stuff. I will send them out to you.

Excellent find!
Those are the same kinda wrappers that I found my recent cache in. I think they must date before 1980. I didnt find a single half newer than 1978. What was the newest in your customer rolls Chump Change?

Nice finds!

Box searched today and found 3 40%. Thats my best box yet. Whats weird everyone mentions 2000-2009 NIFCs but I have never found a coin in my boxes that is later than 2000. What gives? Anyway. I want some good boxes!
