JFK Half Dollar Roll Hunters: Silver, Proofs And Other Finds

way to hang int here and find some silver. was the 90% a shiny rim?

I picked up 4 boxes Thursday and finely got through them this morning and all 4 are skunks, there was 1 76 gold plated one of the better ones I have pulled. The new week of boxes starts tomorrow, hope to see better numbers. Great finds everyone, "LOVE THE HUNT!"

Picked up a box this morning along with $30 in cwr and 4 loose halves. The box produced a pair of 1964's and nothing else. Two of the rolls had nothing but the third roll had a 1964 and three 40%'s.

There were only 2 marked coins in the first half of the box and only about 20 in the other half. Nothing newer than 2001.

Not too bad arby. I still can't believe that one roll you had with 18 silvers in it or something close to that....

I did decent again today, not in volume, but I did find 3 things I haven't found before.

And in general, a lot of variety.

First, what I believe is my first clipped planchet





and next a general shot of the variety, including 2 old cents at 1929 and 1936. Also my first lowball. and there is another first in there, and I'm not talking about the religious token.





My first!





Too bad about the corrosion, even looks like some pitting, not sure if from acid or what would do that. I was a tad skeptical about it being genuine when it weighed in at 12 grams. But, it passed the sliding magnet test, so I'm pretty sure it is legit. It appears like it was a part of some jewelry too. There is not a ton of wear, this thing would have graded very nicely. The last letters of liberty are fully visible, the rest would be too if it wasnt covered in rust or whatever. The lines in the shield show good, but again, damage all over. Either way, I love it!

what is the year on the commem?

ah, looks 1992

mint mark is on the right under the y in liberty. what mint?

d or s, neither appear silver. nice find though, I cant recall seeing one of those posted.

d mint uncirculated mintage 135,702, prob this one.
s mint is proof mintage 390,154

nice low mintage find!

Sweet finds everyone, You never know what you are going to find in this hobby. Good job. "LOVE THE HUNT!"

Cracked open my first 2 boxes of the week tonight. Got off to a good start box 1 had a 1965 40% ender so I knew before I even opened a roll I wasn't skunked. Box 1 also had a 90% 1954 Franklin and 2 2002-date NIFC. Box 2 didn't leave me high and dry either, it had a 1967 40%. There were also 11 2002-date NIFC, 4 of which were 2015P. Not great, but I'm not going to complain with 3 pieces of free silver! I still have 2 Brinks boxes to go, my fed boxes will be in tomorrow and I'll pick them up either tomorrow or Friday. This is already the best week for silver I've had in several weeks. Love it when I can say this, skunk streak 0 boxes.
