Box/Week 7 only 4 NIFCs and a few upgrades to some common early 70's I had in my album. Also when dumping the coins I saw the teller had 4 Ike dollars so I took them as well. I still have to figure how I can tell if the Ikes are silver (I don't think they are since I can clearly see the copper on the side, does that mean you can tell they are silver the same way as looking at half dollars?) |

You can also use the tissue test. Although all 50% silver Eisenhower dollars should have the S mint mark, there were some minted in error at the other two mints. |

Berto, I am definitely going to try to work the bag angle. I'mnot giving up easily. dont want to slow the search. If I could drop off bags, I might be able to search more!

My favorite teller called this morning, said she'd save me a trip into the bank and said she tried to order halves for me this week, but the order wouldn't go through and she didn't know why, anyway she said she'd try again next week. These were the normal Brinks boxes I get weekly, but she'd planned to get me several boxes this week. I'm wondering if she tried to order more than they had on hand? Still got hopes of getting 2 boxes tomorrow at the other bank. Right now I'm on a 2 box skunk streak that needs to be ended!!

My skunk streak now stands at 40 boxes. I ordered one more that should be here by next weekend, and if this one is a skunk too, I think I am gonna throw in the towel and go back to CRHing cents. you'd think by now I would have accidentally found silver. Glad to see so many others out there pulling that wonderful metal.

Received $ 6.50 in loose halves fro a teller and got 2-40%ers. I do way better with loose halves now than with full boxes.

Teller had a stack of half dollars in her tray. This one stuck out from the rest.   |

Wow Mountainman that is a nice find! Wish more tellers had their coin trays up where people (me) can see what treasures they may hold :)

I was looking through the 1995 D Kennedy coins that I have and it looks like this line on the neck is on all the coins in some different degrees.   |

8 boxes to finish up the week, 4 of them were skunks, still not too bad, I pulled 2-90%ers and 9-40%ers, I magic coin, 4-Clad Proofs, 72S, 80S, 92S, and 06S, and 12-NIFC. The 2-90%ers are 64's one a D mint, and 3-67, 2-68 and 4-69's. 15 pieces for the week I will take anytime. I also pulled 2-98P with a very common die crack coming off the lower front of the neck. Hope you all continue to have luck. Skyshark sorry to hear that you haven't pulled any silver yet. Sure hope your next box yields something. Enjoy the pics, and always remember. "LOVE THE HUNT!"    "LOVE THE HUNT!"
