Thanks trapper. Finished off the last two boxes tonight and got a 74-S and a 78-S bith in pretty good shape. I also got a 73-D where Kennedy has some rhino horns - not as prominent as the recent 83, but they are there and I saw them without magnification.

I see the 83 pic form yesterday does not display. Its fine before downloading so am not sure what is wrong.
How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

I got a box from a abranch that really doesn't like me, but they made the mistake of telling me they would order me 1 box per month, and this month I asked for half dollars.
Gald I did!
I found 4 40% and a '64.
One roll had 2 40%s.
WOO!

I've been too broke to search much for a few weeks, but I made it through 5 boxes last week.

My Finds:
1964-D
7 x 40% JFK
1974-D DDO
1939 British One Penny
2000-S Proof
Plenty of NIFC (one box had nearly 4 rolls)

I'm hoping to have several more boxes to go through again this week before I run out of money again.

I opened an account today with a branch that says they will order for me through the fed. Is that good or bad?

I got $10 to test, and looks promising, bank wrapped roll and dates all the way down to 71. I ordered 20 rolls, wish me luck!

Well everyone, I have been out of the hunt for a few months now as far as half dollars. Today, I ordered a box from my bank which orders and they should be here Wednesday. I know it is a drop in the ocean, but at least I am able to search again.

Also, I have been doing some dime searching and averaging one silver per $200 of CWR.

Wish me luck.

i too got the news that my original bank will be able to order halves for me once again. it has been 13 months since my last order so looking forward to it very much.
starting off slow 1 box a week til they can trust I will not dump back to them. they know me already but I don't want any ruffled feathers for any reason.

I went to the fed credit union today and asked for halves. She had 2 rolls she'd been keeping for months. 16 40% in first roll, 9 40% in second roll.! Best CRH yet! For me anyways!

$300 in customer wrapped... looked to be someone's dump bank. All the same wrapper and none wore out. Till the 3rd to the last roll. It had an account number on it. It had 6 40%ers in it! Love it.

I got 2 Loomis boxes yesterday and 3 more today.

The first 2 boxes were wrapped very poorly there was tape and rubber bands all over the boxes to keep them from falling apart and many of the rolls were busted but I did have good results from them.

Box 1

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

2 64's 5 40% (the one with the ender had another 40%) and my first commemorative proof.

Box 2

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

3 40% and 1 1949 S Franklin

Box 3

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

3 40% a 2007 proof and a 2011 medio balboa

Box 4

2 40%

Box 5

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

1 64 and a 1987 proof this box was also loaded with 2010 P and D halves about $80 face in them.
