Thanks Finn, I am actually surprised at how circulated the regular halves are. Haven't fouind any yet that are AU/BU. 3 of those 1964's are AU/BU--very nice they are. I will post when done with whole box-hope to have several more!

I've never done a box but I'd say you've done well!

Finished the box! Wow, that was fun and cool. Found a lot more than expected. Sry the pic is not great. In case you can't tell in the pic, I got 10 1964's-most were BU. 4-1967's, 1-1965(nice one), 1-1966, 2-1967's(one nice one), 3-1968's-all nice, 2-1969's-both nice and 4 proofs. Ready for the next box--problem is that I got that up north-will have to go back there on next business trip.  |

Excellent first box these are definitely not normal to find this much silver however if you can buy another box from the same bank as this box likely has a twin

That is an excellent haul!
I miss searching through half dollar rolls. Now that my bank only accepts wrapped coins it's not really worth the effort anymore.

For the first time, definitely got me hooked now!! I think I just hit beginners luck and probably will not have that much luck again but I am going to order another box soon!!

At today's melt price, that's $80.50 net profit for this little mining adventure. A vein that any hard-rock silver/copper miner would love to get into!

That was a great haul, congrats! I remember when I went up north towards the UP, I visited several small banks around Newberry. At one particular bank, the tellers snickered as they handed over the rolls filled with 40% halves. Many old schoolers considered 40%'ers not worthy and "dirty". The joke was on the tellers as I snatched up the rolls and flipped them later for a nice profit.
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors...
