that is def good for 2 boxes RCook.

I almost forgot, I did 2 on Friday as well, 1 skunk, and the other gave up a 46p walker, a 64, and 9 x 40%. It made up for the skunk box for sure!

Thanks. Ive got plenty of holes to fill in my books too, but its more of a long term goal than a short term goal anyway. d and s mints are tougher for me as well, so those finds are always appreciated.

Only 1 order for 3 boxes came in this week seems like every time there is a holiday my orders get messed up.
All 3 boxes were skunks.
Next week I have 20 boxes ordered I hope they all come in.
Best of luck to everyone.

Just a side note I forgot a big find week before last... Before I started to post...made a find that I thought I would ever duplicate ...a whole roll of silver... I don't really pay close attention to Enders unless they be of the Ben or walking type...so as I tear into this roll lo and behold it's all silver...I sat back into my seat and almost peed my pants...started to wonder if by chance could there be anymore full rolls in this box...no way....so I start to check more closely to the rest of the rolls.. And there it was another roll with both ends being silver... Wanting to get a record of a second full roll for prosperity you understand... I gently sliced through the wrapper with my trusty old exacto knife and as you can tell by the picture it was in fact another full roll of silver..which I have not opened....total of silver out of said box 53....keep on hunting and astacking

CRH newb here. I need a new winter hobby.

Stopped at two local Chase branches today to see if they could order me some boxes. At both branches the teller I needed to talk to wasn't there. Did get $280 worth of customer rolled halves at one branch they had sitting in the vault.

No silver, just 4 NIFC halves. Hopefully I can get some boxes ordered this week.

I don't think I've found a solid silver roll yet, although when I had a box with about 150 pieces of silver there were many rolls that had multiple pieces of silver and only a very few rolls in that box that didn't have any silver.

I finally had time to go through the two boxes I've had sitting around for almost a month...I wish I could get more boxes like these because they are among my best ever out of the 100 boxes I've searched:

5, 1964s
1, 1966
2, 1968D

1, gold-plated counter-stamped (1960-1985)
1, gold-plated bicentennial
1, 1982 P no FG
About a roll of NIFC including a couple 2014's

A couple of my kids were around when I looked through these boxes, so I had them pull the silvers when I saw them in the roll. They got a kick out of it
