wow fellas 20+ skunk boxes has got to be pretty disheartening! I think the most I've went w/o silver is 8 to 10 max and I thought that was a lot!

Hey Jack, welcome to the club. But we must never give up! You never know when it will come back around! After a long skunk streak, I dropped a bank, but the other then produced as you can see in my last few posts. Last box was only 1 proof, but that's ok; we gotta keep pluggin away!  |

6 boxes of halves.
5 boxes were skunks.
1 box had 20 rolls of BU 1976 halves with a light golden tone to them and 3 40%ers. There was a disproportionate number of 1976 that had criss cross toning indicating that they were on the end of a an paper roll with the end folded over (vs shotgun rolls) There were a few in the middle of the roll that had wheel marks indicating that these had been dumped at least twice (once by the original owner and another time by a roll hunter)

I have done 4 boxes this week with nothing good to talk about.
I have ordered another 13 boxes for pickup later this week from a different area that has done well for me in the past, so I have high hopes that I will find at least SOMETHING worth keeping.

Nice fade to black! I got another good box tonight 66 40% 1 63 Franklin 1 87 And I saved my heaviest roll for tomorrow to show someone. They had another box there but they only let me get a box every other week, but I may have to try to get the other box next week. This is my best supply and I rarely get skunked from them so I do not want to push or do anything to ruin this supply.  |

I would have called my boss and told him I would be late as well while I went through the box in the parking lot. |

Trust me they are getting a gift card. I always get them one when I do good. As far as I know I am the only one who orders ( and they are very good at saving them for me) fed wrapped rolls from them. They have told me one other guy gets their cwr but never takes fwr so I should be Ok but you never know.

I just got my 5th box this week and it had a '64 ender, and 7 40%. WOO!
This box was the flat brinks style and the rest were the cube style with Dunbar wrappers.
I have never had any luck with these boxes. Has anyone here found any silver in those?
