Nice finds everyone, I placed an order Tuesday hopefully they will come in tomorrow. I should have never started now I can't stop. I started marking the rims to see if I am getting them back. I noticed others have marked the inner ear with a black dot, or one of the O's in Dollar. I haven't seen any come back yet. Have any of you marked coins to see if you are getting them back? Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. Hope you all find a bunch of silver in the New Year.

if you need to mark the coins use a small sticker what you throw back might be what I'm looking for be kind some people look to fill coin books

coinsrus1000, The subject of marking coins has been discussed more than I can count. The same product that removes a mark from a coin would be needed to remove the sticker residue and finger prints after sticker removal. Pure acetone. You'll find people that fall on both sides of the mark/don't mark coins. You're unlikely to change many opinions. I think the best you can do is encourage people to mark/sticker average or common coins.

I searched one of my four boxes last night before I went to bed. When I opened the box I could see three silver coins on three different rolls. I pulled out my first roll and there were six 40%ers in that first roll. I had a feeling it was going to be a good box. This is my best box to date. I pulled eight 90%, fifty-two 40%, one proof and one holed. If I get skunked on the next three boxes it will still have been worth it. 1 63 Franklin, 7 64 Kennedys, 2 65's, 5 66's, 26 67's, 16 68's, and 3 69's, 1 76 Proof, and one holed.

Run into some bad luck boxes recently. I had 4 boxes from 3 different branches and 2 different banks and came up with ZERO silver. Had my monthly order come in at another branch and they gave me a $500 bag of what I think were searched. Has anyone been given a bag instead of a box?

I picked up 2 boxes from a local bank that never has any halves. Ended up with one '64 and fourteen 40%. I also found my best 1987-D so far.
When I dropped them off at the coin counter I found 4 silver Roosevelts in the reject tray. '62, '63, '64 and a '58 that looks like it was made yesterday. Nice week.

@grime5: I wouldn't pay it. I would rather go out of town! Nice finds, Jack and Arby! A monster box!

Nothing real special, but I did find a 1970-D and 1964 Kennedy's.

On my way to pick up 4 more boxes this morning. I will be busy this evening. Great way to end the year. Trying to get to my first $1000 in silver before the end of the year. Happy searching!

littlebirde8 Yes, I was given 4 sealed bags 2 weeks ago, 1 of them had silver in it. I'm wondering if this will be a new trend it will save them boxes and rolling expenses.
