It has been a while since I have been able to score silver at face, but today was the day! I got ten 40% halves from the store down the road on the way home this afternoon. I ended up with (1) 1965, (5) 1967, (1) 1968-D, & (3) 1969-D. Sorry about the bad pic, I took it with my phone.

did you get them in change at a retail store? or did you see them in a bank cashier's drawer?

I'll betcha THEY won't go back into circulation!  You are just making it a little harder for roll searchers! |

This guy saves all the Halves, $ coins, and any other out of the ordinary stuff that comes into the store. I have gotten Red & Blue seal bills, an ASE, a couple of Morgans, foreign coins, tokens that he takes as dollars coins ( really do not want them but give him a buck for those anyway), as well as an awful lot of other silver U.S coinage. I have tried to give him a fair price for the stuff but he will only take face even though he knows they are worth more than that. |

I am not suggesting you give him a gift, but to show your thanks maybe buy him some donuts |

Cool guy!! I have found some tellers like that but most know about their silver value and keep them for themselves. I only way I have found any is in unsearched rolls. Most have been searched so it has been quite a while since I have found any silver. Congrats on your find!!

It's getting to be tougher and tougher to get silver on the fly. Nice pick-up!
