There have been more good finds than poor finds recently on this thread...Congrats on the good ones!
I'm preparing to travel to one of the destinations where I typically look through boxes of halves. In this case, I lost my good setup for depositing coins I've searched because the buddy of mine who was coin vault manager at a CU left his job. I'm debating whether or not to place an order for boxes of halves given I don't have a good deposit setup. If I do place an order, it'll be a modest 4 boxes because I do not have a good deposit setup. The last 26 boxes I looked through at this location yielded only 12, 40%-ers, so looking through 4 boxes this round may not be worth my time.
Any thoughts from those of you who enjoy this hobby as much as I do?

90% halfs are becoming scarce! Last year I found 157 40% and 56 90%. This year I am at 187 40% and 19 90%.
Yes I am on track to double my 40s so that is good. I wonder if people are becoming more aware of the 90s now? Either way I am still finding something.

4 boxes from Friday. One box had a reverse ender that was on the bottom of the stack so I didn't see it until I unwrapped the roll. That box had 3 40%ers. The only other items of interest were 3 NIFC and a 1967 British penny.

Best hunt to date for me: Two boxes on Friday, I think I got a partial collection dump with box 1 having 3x 40%, 4x Proofs (1987-S, 2003-S, 2004-S, 2005-S) also hit two milestones in for me including 1st walker 1940-P, oldest half found in the wild, and my first commemorative, 1986-S, Nation of Immigrants (clad). 2nd box was good, just not as great as the first! 3x 40%, 1981-S, and 2006-S.  First box also had two proof enders
