It's been awhile since posting here. I still lurk and post on occasion but I no longer post my results. However, I can't help but post what was my best box ever. I opened a box with 214 BU Franklins. 26 total Benders. 3 of the rolls were double Benders. My best roll had 15. There were also 2 1967. I'm still in shock.    Edited by Owassokie

Thanks everyone!
I haven't run the totals by date. I can say the vast majority are 1960 to 1963. I saw several in the 50's but no 40's (There may be a few). I let my wife and daughter help so I haven't laid eyes on all of them. A couple of the 50's are beautifully toned. It looks like they were probably stored in a different place.
