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

Nice finds, Arby and trapper!

Its been a while since I have posted. I post one time after joining and go on a 3 box skunker. The slot machine finally kicked out 4 40s this week. I didnt want to hex anyone so I didnt post the bad results. It sure is cool to see that so many coins are being found by so many different people in so many different places. I'm a 1 box a week person because the banks in my area do not want the dump, even after opening an account. And I want to correct something from my 1t post. The strange coin that I found wasnt from spain but it was from panama. Same size as a kennedy but it was not a silver coin. Hope you all have a great weekend playing the slot and please remember those who gave up their lives for this great country

Guys, I hate to say it, but I'm going to have to take a break for awhile. It's not really by choice or that I want to, but our water heater sprung a leak and did a lot of floor/wall/insulation damage to the house and I'm going to have to get a contractor to come in and do the work getting the house back in order. The contractor is going to consist of people coming and going from the house that I know nothing about and I certainly don't want a couple thousand dollars worth of half dollars sitting around to get their attention, so I really see no other way to do it other than just stop my orders for awhile. I won't have any halves coming for probably about the next 4 weeks. They haven't started the work yet and are estimating it to take about 3 weeks to complete once they get started. One of the main reasons I hate taking the break is that for 2016 I've found silver every week for the first 5 months and was wanting to see if I could make it all year without a skunk week.

Anyway now onto better news. This weeks boxes produced the following silver, 1 1954D Franklin, 2 1964, 1 1965, 1 1967 Kennedy halves. 2016 year to date silver, 57.2431 oz. I also found 4 1974D DDO, 1 1986 proof and my usual hand full of NIFC. Good luck to everyone while I take my break. Don't mine all the silver, I want to pick up where I left off getting a little, or even better a lot of silver each week.

The only way I could do that is order full boxes and only pick up a few rolls at a time. Both my banks are very good to me about ordering halves for me weekly, so I really don't want to be bothering them every day just to pick up a few rolls only to return them the next day to get a few more rolls, I'm afraid that might have a negative impact on my relationship with the tellers. Also one of the banks is just a small local banking company that doesn't have the vault space to order the boxes and have them sitting around all week while I slowly work my way through them. Right now I'm picking up $2000. at a time at one bank and $1000. at the other bank per week, plus the bank that orders $2000. a week for me also takes all my dumps and I never get a complaint. As it is now they only have to look at my ugly mug usually once or twice a week. Pick ups would also be hard to make because they're going to be working here from 7:30-4:30 which would be during banking hours except for Friday when they're open till 6:00. I'm also not going off and leaving a house full of people that I don't know in my house and no one here to keep an eye on what's going on. I don't have a lot, but I plan to keep what I do have!!

Finished up my bag of half from yesterday.
