Jack not too bad silver and proofs Maybe the next box we be someone's collection.
How often do you find your dumped coins?
I get a lot marked coins from other people but in 2 years I have not found any of my own

Congrats to everyone on their finds this week. I'll update when I finish my boxes this week, but have opened one box and put it back to be my last box of the week because there are 19 rolls with single enders and 1 roll with double enders. All the enders are Kennedy's, and of the ones I can see a date on are all 40%. Great to know I'm going into a box with 21 pieces of silver and haven't even cracked open a roll. I want to save this box for the last one so I can end the week on a good note.

Tried to order some halves today but the bank doesn't order them for some reason. Will try another bank tomorrow.

RCook, that sounds like it will be a dream box. Enjoy man! I guess you cracked open all of them to look first? because that would be great if you only cracked 1, and that is what you saw.
I did 4 more boxes today, first 3 skunks, and last had a 64 and a 67.
Looking forward to the RCook report!
Good luck all,

Quote: How often do you find your dumped coins? Every week. I have gotten a dump back in less than a week. Other times I don't see a months worth of dumps until 3 months later and they have already been diluted and mixed with new coins. If I see coins I have dumped recently along with 1974D or 1982P or D coins that aren't marked I know that my original dump has been already been diluted. There is no way to beat the system as to where to dump and where to pick up from so as not to get any of your dumps back (other than maybe during 150 miles to the next armored cars service area / distribution district) And even then you are not guaranteed because after a year or so most of the marked coins have migrated out of the pol. It almost brings a smile to my face when I come across a coin I dumped 2 or 3 years ago. Or one that has been tagged 6 or 7 times. I think getting the same coin back 8 times is my record and there isn't much real estate left to tag it again.

RCook, I am also in the bluegrass state! I live in the ville. Whereabouts are you? I tried to send you a message but it says new members can't send emails. :(

Today I placed my order for when I travel out of state in a couple weeks. The bank said they'd place the order for me this time without a fee, but they have been overwhelmed with half dollar CRHers so they are starting to charge for orders...unfortunately, I believe this is the wave of the future.
On the bright side, they were nice in that they said I could bring the coins back loose and they would run them through their counter and give me cash. I won't bring the coins back to them given they're burned out. Instead I'll spread my deposit among other banks.
Enjoy it while it lasts everyone :-/

Thanks everyone for the well wishes on the box with the enders. I've got 1 more box to search before I crack the rolls in the good box. I plan on keeping notes of what's in each roll as I search it and will post the results. Looks like this is going to be my second Christmas dump box for the 2015 Christmas season and my third Christmas season dump box since I started roll searching halves in 2014. The first one yielded 30 oz. of silver, the second one yielded 25 oz. of silver, and I'm hoping this one is as good or better!! Considering that the end of the rolls provide a sneak peak at 10% of the box I'm thinking maybe this box has the potential for up to 210 pieces of silver. I always love boxes where you don't get bored just looking at the same old '70's era clad. I didn't crack them all before starting the search, just that when I opened this one planning to search it I saw lots of silver and decided to save it until last. I've searched 8 of this weeks boxes so far and still have one sealed box. Lovewiibrew, I assume you meant you live in Louisville. If so I'm roughly 160 miles south of you in the south central part of the state.

Thanks for the reply, RCook. Hope your box is great! I may have to look into boxes again. I mainly just do road trips for CWR.
