Very Nice Jack, some of those 66,67 and 68 look nice. Still blows me away to see how much silver is out there. Wish you all the best, don't give up the hunt.

4 boxes yesterday. 1 1964, 2 NIFC, and 8 proofs. 7 out of the 8 are really nice with the exception of 2 with wheel marks including the 1986 which was an ender which is sad because so far that is only the 3rd 1986 proof I have found and needed a nicer one for my set   |

I have continued to search halves but have not posted in a while but today I picked up my 4 boxes and they have been my best ever     Box 1 had 7 90% 11 40% Box 2 had 2 enders 4 90% and 10 40% Box 3 had 3 enders 3 90% and 35 40 Thats 14 90% and 56 40% in 3 boxes I have never done this well and I still have another box. (Breakdown of the 90%) 9 64's 58D and 59D Franklins a 40P Walker and a George Washington silver proof and a George Washington silver non proof. Which is exciting cause I have never found any silver commemorative's. They were both from different boxes if you were wondering. And did I mention the fourth box has 9 enders so it should be my best.  |

Basicbob101, lately the Loomis rolls have not been yielding much, The one bank I get rolls from are from Miracle Delivery they are black and white rolls. They have been very good lately. I cracked 4 of each open today, Loomis and Miracle, from the Loomis,I pulled 2-40%ers and 2-90%ers with box 3 being a skunk. Out of the 4 Miracle boxes I pulled 4-90%ers, one is a 1908D Barber, that is my second barber since I started searching, and 21-40%ers. Enjoy the Pics. Here is the break down.  1-1908D, 2-64, 3-64D, 2-65, 2-66, 9-67, 8-68, and 4-69. I pulled 2-GEMS, 1-74D and an 1-88-P, 1-ED Clad Proof 78S, 1-Counterstamped, and 4-NIFC.       very happy with this haul, I will be picking up 4 boxes tomorrow which will be Loomis boxes, hope they are good ones!

Very nice Arby, congrats on the finds, esp the Barber....what a thrill! All the banks in my area use brinks. I am on a 13 box streak of skunks on Brinks boxes so I have kinda given up. I think the only alternative in my area is Loomis. Thanksz for the info. bob

Arby, just did a quick check and the closed Miracle service seems to be El Paso Texas which is 725 miles from me...just a little too far to go for a box of halves! I will just have to keep with teller trays and customer wrapped rolls (which are usually somebody's dumps).
