First post and my first proof pull - 1979s from a $10 roll!

CRH since last September and my first significant find. I mainly do nickels, but I've been getting a roll of halves every week to start the new year. Hit this on roll #7. Very excited!

While a nice proof find, it's not silver :(

Silver proofs started in 1992. Keep up the search though!

One box last night; skunk again. Not even an NIFC.

A few nice GEM quality halves but that's it. I've got another box to go through before Wednesday, hopefully that one will bear fruit.

Nice finds Jack, Glad to see silver, what year is the Napolen? CPC24 its amazing how many tellers don't know about the silver, I talked with one of the tellers and they are so caught up doing their work they don't really have the time or they are worried about spending time searching and loosing their job because they should be working. Most would rather keep their job than take the time to search coins.

Arby96, I've actually had one teller tell me about finding several rolls of 90% halves and selling them. I went to one bank, and a teller had a stack of silver halves in her tray, and told me I couldn't have any. Most tellers don't admit it, but a lot of them keep silver.

I finely cracked my last 4 boxes from last week, 3 skunks, Box 2 yielded me 1-90%er a 64, and 4-40%ers, 1-68, and 3-69's, I rescued a 74S Clad Proof, 9-NIFC, 8-2011's. Any silver is better than no silver. Hope you all have a great week searching. Keep posting and Remember "LOVE THE HUNT!"

2 boxes.

Box 1 skunked.

Box 2 had a proof ender (and another I missed because it was on the bottom) When you have a silver ender there is usually more in the box. There were more here as well.

Nice proofs! I just did my 3rd box today and found a 1987D, 2002P, and a 2003P. No silvers or proofs again. I've got an order for 1 box per week, so we'll see how the next one turns out.
