Just finished 4 boxes today, two were skunks, my first box was a mini monster box, check out the pics of stacked rolls, There were 5 enders between box 1 and 4, three from box 1 were stacked with silver, one roll had 17 pieces and one had 15 pieces of silver. I ended up pulling 7-90%ers and 64-40%ers.  I just went over 2000 pieces of silver for the year. I didn't think I was going to make it. I also pulled 2-clad proofs, 76S and 97S, 2-72D No FG, a two headed half, a counterstamp, (MAX B. ROD, Obverse, and M on Reverse. Skunk on NIFC coins these boxes. Hope the photos motivate you all to keep searching.   Three Great Enders  17 Stacked in this Roll  15 Stacked in this Roll    A  two headed coin. Happy New Year to you all and I hope you all continue to find silver just don't give up. Excited to see what happens next year.    Still have a few boxes coming before the end of this year.
"LOVE THE HUNT!"

And there was 150 Kennedy coins in some one's "till" & they were out. So, I said I would get them in the morning. Now, I am just going to order two boxes instead of one. Arby96, may I please ask you, your state or location area?

I Thought I would look through $6K worth while on vacation in an area I have searched before with a 1 silver per box average, so I ordered $2K from 3 different banks. Not one of the orders came in, and all my banks were apologetic. I admit I am disappointed because this means others are now looking through boxes in this area so none were available in the local coin vault. I am disappointed, but the bright side is I'm buying walkers and franklins in at least very fine condition for melt value from a buddy of mine who lives where I am vacationing. Happy hunting all, enjoy it while it lasts

Forgot to mention I visited 5 banks today and picked up $297.50 worth of CWRs. They were all clad. One older gentleman in front of me in line at bank #1 asked for all the halves the bank had, which was maybe $10 worth, sifted through them on the teller counter, rerolled them, said "no thanks", deposited them, and promptly left...the teller was not impressed  . This was a show of poor CRHing manners. Please don't do this folks!

Quote: One of them had a the shield and the eagles head worn but everything else on the coin looks untouched. Is this some sort of error or is this common? Not an error but a late die state / worn die.

OK Guys (and Gals) Just got home with $77.50 in Half Dollars. I surely understand looking for Silver. BTW there was no Silver.  There was several rather special-looking-cleaner- proof like coins, Generally dated after 2002. What are they? Are they specail in any way? Are they NIFC? Are any of you saving this kind of Kennedy half dollars? Also there was a few in the dates of the 80s. Three 1982 d ~~~~ Two 1983 d. IMHO they look MS63-64 to me. Please advise this newbie, on Half Dollars, on what I should be looking for!! I have ordered my first $500 box of Half Dollars. Should be here this week.

I got $77.50 in half dollars today at my CU The picture does no show all the NIFC coins. From 2002 to 2006 there was 19 coins. I was surprised at the number of better MS coins in the 1970s and 1980s and 1990s. About 20 coins. But zippo on AG Have ordered my first $500 box, and my get it Friday. Can't get MIGHTY IKES lately, May switch to Half Dollars.
